તે પ્રજાઓને બળવાન બનાવે છે, તે તેઓનો નાશ પણ કરે છે.

In context

21He pours contempt on princes, and loosens the belt of the strong.

22He uncovers deep things out of darkness, and brings out to light the shadow of death.

23He increases the nations, and he destroys them. He enlarges the nations, and he leads them captive.

24He takes away understanding from the chiefs of the people of the earth, and causes them to wander in a wilderness where there is no way.

25They grope in the dark without light. He makes them stagger like a drunken man.
