1 Samuel 2:6-8

6“The LORD brings death and makes alive; he brings down to the grave and raises up.

7The LORD sends poverty and wealth; he humbles and he exalts.

8He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap; he seats them with princes and has them inherit a throne of honor. “For the foundations of the earth are the LORD ’s; on them he has set the world.
