1 Samuel 2:6-8

Revised Geneva Translation

⁶ “The LORD kills and makes alive, brings down to the grave and raises up.

⁷ “The LORD makes poor and makes rich, brings low and exalts.

⁸ “He raises up the poor from the dust and lifts up the beggar from the dunghill, to set among princes and to make them inherit the seat of glory. For the pillars of the Earth are the LORD’s, and he has set the world upon them.
