⁷ Jehovah dispossesseth, and He maketh rich, He maketh low, yea, He maketh high.

⁷ But God `is' judge, This He maketh low -- and this He lifteth up.

¹¹ To set the low on a high place, And the mourners have been high `in' safety.

¹⁷ and thou hast said in thy heart, My power, and the might of my hand, hath made for me this wealth:

¹⁸ `And thou hast remembered Jehovah thy God, for He it `is' who is giving to thee power to make wealth, in order to establish His covenant which He hath sworn to thy fathers as `at' this day.

²¹ and he saith, `Naked came I forth from the womb of my mother, and naked I turn back thither: Jehovah hath given and Jehovah hath taken: let the name of Jehovah be blessed.'

¹⁰ be made low before the Lord, and He shall exalt you.

¹⁰ From Thine indignation and Thy wrath, For Thou hast lifted me up, And dost cast me down.

¹² For a day `is' to Jehovah of Hosts, For every proud and high one, And for every lifted up and low one,

⁹ And let the brother who is low rejoice in his exaltation,

¹⁰ and the rich in his becoming low, because as a flower of grass he shall pass away;
