1 Samuel 2:7-9
New Life Version
7 The Lord makes poor and makes rich. He brings low and He lifts up. 8 He lifts the poor from the dust. He lifts those in need from the ashes. He makes them sit with rulers and receive a seat of honor. For what holds the earth belongs to the Lord. He has set the world in its place. 9 He watches over the steps of His good people. But the sinful ones will be made quiet in darkness. For a man will not win by strength.
