6 aYahweh puts to death and makes alive;
bHe brings down to Sheol and raises up.
7 aYahweh makes poor and rich;
bHe brings low; He also exalts.
8 aHe raises the poor from the dust;
bHe exalts the needy from the ash heap
cTo make them sit with nobles,
And inherit a seat of glory;
dFor the pillars of the earth are Yahweh’s,
And He set the world on them.
