1 Samuel 2:8-10

International Children’s Bible

⁸The Lord raises the poor up from the dust.
And he picks needy people up from the ashes.
He lets the poor sit with princes.
He lets them sit on a throne of honor.

“The foundations of the earth belong to the Lord.
    The Lord set the world upon them.
⁹He protects his holy people.
    But those who do evil will be silenced in darkness.
    Their power will not help them win.
¹⁰The Lord destroys his enemies.
    He will thunder in heaven against them.
The Lord will judge all the earth.
    He will give power to his king.
    He will make his appointed king strong.”
