1 Samuel 2:7-10

7The Lord brings poverty and gives wealth; he humbles and he exalts.

8He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the trash heap. He seats them with noblemen and gives them a throne of honor. For the foundations of the earth are the Lord’s; he has set the world on them.

9He guards the steps of his faithful ones, but the wicked perish in darkness, for a person does not prevail by his own strength.

10Those who oppose the Lord will be shattered; he will thunder in the heavens against them. The Lord will judge the ends of the earth. He will give power to his king; he will lift up the horn of his anointed.
