He withdraweth not his eyes from the righteous: but with kings are they on the throne; yea, he doth establish them for ever, and they are exalted.
Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.

He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.
