Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
6 Yahweh kills, and makes alive: He brings down to Sheol, and brings up.
7 Yahweh makes poor, and makes rich: He brings low, he also lifts up.
8 He raises up the poor out of the dust, He lifts up the needy from the dunghill, To make them sit with princes, Inherit the throne of glory: For the pillars of the earth are Yahweh`s, He has set the world on them.
9 He will keep the feet of his holy ones; But the wicked shall be put to silence in darkness; For by strength shall no man prevail.
10 Those who strive with Yahweh shall be broken to pieces; Against them will he thunder in the sky: Yahweh will judge the ends of the earth; He will give strength to his king, Exalt the horn of his anointed.
11 Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. The child did minister to Yahweh before Eli the priest.
12 Now the sons of Eli were base men; they didn`t know Yahweh.
