To set up on high those that be low; that those which mourn may be exalted to safety.

Verse 11 is found in chapter 5 of Job. Eliphaz presents God as the one who does great things, humbles the proud, lifts up the humble, and frustrates the plans of the crafty. This vision strongly emphasizes divine providence and justice. Yet the speech still does not explain why a person who appears blameless could experience such extreme ruin.

der die Niedrigen erhöht und den Betrübten emporhilft.
Que pone los humildes en altura, Y los enlutados son levantados a salud:
Pone en alto a los humildes y levanta a los que lloran hasta un lugar seguro.
Il relève les humbles, Et délivre les affligés;
Che innalza i bassi, E fa che quelli ch’erano in duolo sono esaltati per salvazione;
Para pôr aos abatidos num lugar alto; e para que os enlutados se exaltem na salvação.
他將卑微的人安置在高處, 將哀痛的人舉到穩妥之地。
