6 YHWH puts to death, and keeps alive, || He brings down to Sheol, and brings up.

7 YHWH dispossesses, and He makes rich, || He makes low, indeed, He makes high.

8 He raises the poor from the dust, || He lifts up the needy from a dunghill, || To cause [them] to sit with nobles, || Indeed, He causes them to inherit a throne of glory, || For the fixtures of earth [are] of YHWH, || And He sets the habitable world on them.
