1 Samuel 2:8-9

⁸He raises the poor from the dust

and lifts the needy from the ash heap.

He seats them among princes

and bestows on them a throne of honor.

For the foundations of the earth are the LORD’s,

and upon them He has set the world.

⁹He guards the steps of His faithful ones,

but the wicked perish in darkness;

for by his own strength shall no man prevail.
