5 People who once had plenty to eat must now hire themselves out for only a piece of bread. But you give the hungry more than enough to eat. A woman did not have a child, and you gave her seven, but a woman who had many was left with none.

6 You take away life, and you give life. You send people down to the world of the dead and bring them back again.

7 Our LORD, you are the one who makes us rich or poor. You put some in high positions and bring disgrace on others.
