1 Samuel 2:5-7

New Living Translation

⁵ Those who were well fed are now starving,
    and those who were starving are now full.
The childless woman now has seven children,
    and the woman with many children wastes away.
⁶ The Lord gives both death and life;
    he brings some down to the grave^[a] but raises others up.
⁷ The Lord makes some poor and others rich;
    he brings some down and lifts others up.
