1 Samuel 2:4-9

4The bowH7198 of the mightyH1368 is broken, and they that stumbledH3782 are girdedH247 with strengthH2428.

5They that were full have hiredH7936 themselves out for breadH3899; and the hungryH7457 are [so] no more: Even the barrenH6135 beareth sevenH7651, and she that hath manyH7227 children is waxed feeble.

6Jehovah killeth, and maketh aliveH2421; he bringeth downH3381 to SheolH7585, and bringeth up.

7Jehovah maketh poor, and maketh richH6238, he bringeth lowH8213, alsoH637 he lifteth up:

8He raiseth up the poor out of the dustH6083; from the dung-hill he lifteth up the needyH34, To setH6965 [him] among noblesH5081; and he maketh them inheritH5157 a throneH3678 of gloryH3519; For the pillars of the earthH776 are Jehovah's, and he hath setH6965 the worldH8398 upon them.

9He keepeth the feetH7272 of his saints, but the wickedH7563 are silenced in darknessH2822; for by strengthH3581 shall no manH376 prevailH1396.
