1 Samuel 2:6-8
Contemporary English Version
1 Samuel 2:6-8
Contemporary English Version
6 (A) You take away life,
and you give life.
You send people down
to the world of the dead
and bring them back again.
7 Our Lord, you are the one
who makes us rich or poor.
You put some in high positions
and bring disgrace on others.
8 You lift the poor and homeless
out of the garbage dump
and give them places of honor
in royal palaces.
You set the world on foundations,
and they belong to you.
Contemporary English Version (CEV)
