4 The bows of the mighty men have been broken, and the weak are girded with strength.
5 Those that were full have hired themselves out for bread, and those that were hungry ceased so that the barren has given birth to seven, and she that has many children is waxed feeble.
6 The Lord kills, and he gives life; he brings down to Sheol and raises up.
7 The Lord makes poor and makes rich; he brings low and lifts up.
8 He raises up the poor out of the dust and lifts up the beggar from the dunghill to set them among princes and to make them inherit the throne of glory. For the pillars of the earth are the Lord’s, and he has set the world upon them.
9 He keeps the feet of his saints, and the wicked perish in darkness, for no man shall prevail by their own strength.
10 Lord, thine adversaries shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven he shall thunder upon them. The Lord shall judge the ends of the earth, and he shall give strength unto his king and exalt the horn of his anointed. {Heb. Messiah}
