Job 5:11
He sets the lowly on high, so that mourners are lifted to safety.
BSB
ASV
So that he setteth up on high those that are low, And those that mourn are exalted to safety.
KJV
To set up on high those that be low; that those which mourn may be exalted to safety.
Those whom proud men contrive to crush he raises from under their feet, and sets them in safety, Ps. xii. The lowly in heart, and those that mourn, he advances, comforts, and makes to dwell on high, in the munitions of rocks, Isa. xxxiii. Sion's mourners are the sealed ones, marked for safety, Ezek. ix.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
