1 Samuel 2:6

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

The LORD brings death and gives life; He brings down to Sheol and raises up.

In context

4 The bows of the mighty are broken, but the feeble are equipped with strength.

5 The well-fed hire themselves out for food, but the starving hunger no more. The barren woman gives birth to seven, but she who has many sons pines away.

6 The LORD brings death and gives life; He brings down to Sheol and raises up.

7 The LORD sends poverty and wealth; He humbles and He exalts.

8 He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap. He seats them among princes and bestows on them a throne of honor. For the foundations of the earth are the LORD’s, and upon them He has set the world.
