6 The LORD kills, and he gives life; he brings down to Sheol and raises up.

7 The LORD makes poor and makes rich; he brings low and lifts up.

8 He raises up the poor out of the dust [and] lifts up the beggar from the dunghill to set [them] among princes and to make them inherit the throne of glory. For the pillars of the earth [are] the LORD'S, and he has set the world upon them.
