In this world the kings and great men lord it over their people (Luke 22:25; NLT).
The rich rule the poor (Proverbs 22:7, NLT).
Those who are last now will be first then, and those who are first will be last (Matthew 20:16; NLT).
Whoever wants to be first must take last place and be the servant of everyone else (Mark 9:35; NLT).
God blesses are those who are poor and realise their need for him, for the Kingdom of Heaven is theirs (Matthew 5:3; NLT).
