6 "The Lord puts to death and gives life, casts down to Sheol and brings up again. [AF]

7 The Lord makes poor and makes rich, humbles, and also exalts.

8 He raises the needy from the dust; from the ash heap lifts up the poor, To seat them with nobles and make a glorious throne their heritage. "For the pillars of the earth are the Lord's, and he has set the world upon them. [AG]
