He raises up the poor out of the dust; He lifts up the needy from the dunghill to set them among princes; yea, He causes them to inherit a throne of honor; for to Jehovah are the pillars of the earth; and He sets the habitable world on them.

Jehovah shall judge the ends of the earth. And He shall give strength to His king, and exalts the horn of His anointed.
