1 Samuel 2:8-9

8 1He raises the poor from the dust, 2He lifts the needy from the ash heap 3To make them sit with nobles, And inherit a seat of honor; 4For the pillars of the earth are the Lord’s, And He set the world on them.9 5He keeps the feet of His godly ones, 6But the wicked ones are silenced in darkness; 7For not by might shall a man prevail.
