1 Samuel 2:7

Jehovah takes away and He gives riches. He brings low and lifts up high.

He sets on high the lowly people. He lifts those who mourn to safety.

God is the Judge; He brings down one and exalts another.

When you succeed do not brag: 'I am rich. I earned it all myself.'

He said: I was born with nothing (naked), and I will die with nothing. Jehovah gave, and now he has taken away. Blessed be the name of Jehovah!

Humble yourselves in the presence of God, and he will exalt you.

This is because of your indignation and your anger. You have lifted me up and cast me away.

All who are proud will be humbled. Jehovah of Hosts will have his day against all who are arrogant and conceited.

Let the brother of humble circumstances glory in his high position (exaltation).
