translationNotes
- The writer continues to use parallelism in each verse, conveying a single idea using two different statements to emphasize how God lifts those who are lowly and debases those who are cunning. (See: en:ta:vol2:translate:figs_parallelism)
- He does this in order to set up on high those who are low - "God sets up on high those who are lowly" or "God gives honor to those who are lowly" or "God exalts those who are lowly"
- to raise to safety those who mourn in ashes - "he raises to safety those who mourn"
- He frustrates - "He breaks" or "He brings to nothing"
- schemes - "plans" or "designs" or "undertakings"
- the crafty - "those who are cunning" or "those who are devious" or "those who are shrewd"
