The LORD maketh poor, and maketh rich: he bringeth low, and lifteth up.
They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches;
And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:
And he was driven from the sons of men; and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild asses: they fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven; till he knew that the most high God ruled in the kingdom of men, and that he appointeth over it whomsoever he will.
He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.
