1 Samuel 2:4-8
New International Version
4 “The bows of the warriors are broken,(A)
but those who stumbled are armed with strength.(B)
5 Those who were full hire themselves out for food,
but those who were hungry(C) are hungry no more.
She who was barren(D) has borne seven children,
but she who has had many sons pines away.
6 “The Lord brings death and makes alive;(E)
he brings down to the grave and raises up.(F)
7 The Lord sends poverty and wealth;(G)
he humbles and he exalts.(H)
8 He raises(I) the poor(J) from the dust(K)
and lifts the needy(L) from the ash heap;
he seats them with princes
and has them inherit a throne of honor.(M)
“For the foundations(N) of the earth are the Lord’s;
on them he has set the world.

1 Samuel 2:4-8
King James Version
4 The bows of the mighty men are broken, and they that stumbled are girded with strength.
5 They that were full have hired out themselves for bread; and they that were hungry ceased: so that the barren hath born seven; and she that hath many children is waxed feeble.
6 The Lord killeth, and maketh alive: he bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up.
7 The Lord maketh poor, and maketh rich: he bringeth low, and lifteth up.
8 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth 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 hath set the world upon them.
