31BoastH1696H7235 noH408 moreH7235 so veryH1364 proudlyH1364, 2Do not let arroganceH6277 comeH3318 out of your mouthH6310; 3For the LordH3068 is a GodH410 of knowledgeH1844, 4And with Him actionsH5949 are weighedH8505.45The bowsH7198 of the mightyH1368 are shatteredH2844, 6But the feebleH3782 girdH247 on strengthH2428.5Those who were fullH7649 hireH7936 themselves out for breadH3899, But those who were hungryH7457 ceaseH2308 to hunger. 7EvenH5704 the barrenH6135 givesH3205 birthH3205 to sevenH7651, But 8she who has manyH7227 childrenH1121 languishesH535.69The LordH3068 killsH4191 and makesH2421 aliveH2421; 10He bringsH3381 downH3381 to 11SheolH7585 and raisesH5927 up.712The LordH3068 makesH3423 poorH3423 and richH6238; 13He bringsH8213 lowH8213, He alsoH637 exaltsH7311.814He raisesH6965 the poorH1800 from the dustH6083, 15He liftsH7311 the needyH34 from the ashH830 heapH6083 16To make them sitH3427 with noblesH5081, And inheritH5157 a seatH3678 of honorH3519; 17For the pillarsH4690 of the earthH776 are the Lord’sH3068, And He setH7896 the worldH8398 on them.918He keepsH8104 the feetH7272 of His godlyH2623 onesH2623, 19But the wickedH7563 onesH7563 are silencedH1826 in darknessH2822; 20For not by mightH3581 shall a manH376 prevailH1396.
