1 Samuel 2:9 - Forerunner Commentary

1 Samuel 2:9

7 The Lord ^amakes poor and makes rich;
^bHe brings low and lifts up.

8 ^aHe raises the poor from the dust
And lifts the beggar from the ash heap,
^bTo set them among princes
And make them inherit the throne of glory.
^c“For the pillars of the earth are the Lord’s,
And He has set the world upon them.

9 ^aHe will guard the feet of His saints,
But the ^bwicked shall be silent in darkness.
“For by strength no man shall prevail.

10 The adversaries of the Lord shall be ^abroken in pieces;
^bFrom heaven He will thunder against them.
^cThe Lord will judge the ends of the earth.
^d“He will give ^estrength to His king,
And ^fexalt the horn of His anointed.”

11 Then Elkanah went to his house at Ramah. But the child ministered to the Lord before Eli the priest.

The Wicked Sons of Eli

12 Now the sons of Eli were ^acorrupt; ^bthey did not know the Lord.
