In context

4The bows of the mighty are broken, but the feeble are equipped with strength.

5The well-fed hire themselves out for food, but the starving hunger no more. The barren woman gives birth to seven, but she who has many sons pines away.

6The LORD brings death and gives life; He brings down to Sheol 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 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.
