In context

5 whose harvest the hungry eat up, and take it even out of the thorns. The snare gapes for their substance.

6 For affliction doesn’t come out of the dust, neither does trouble spring out of the ground;

11 so that he sets up on high those who are low, those who mourn are exalted to safety.
