In this study, we are using the Berean Standard Bible as the base for comparison.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb of the verse is לָשׂ֣וּם (la.Sum), to set, which governs the structure of the sentence. The verb is followed by the object שְׁפָלִ֣ים (she.fa.Lim), the lowly, and the prepositional phrase לְמָר֑וֹם (le.ma.Rom), to a high place, indicating the destination of the action.
The second clause introduces the mourners with וְ֝קֹדְרִ֗ים (ve.ko.de.Rim), and mourners, followed by the verb שָׂ֣גְבוּ (Sa.ge.vu), they are high, and concludes with the noun יֶֽשַׁע (Ye.sha'), safety, which describes the outcome of God's action.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates לָשׂ֣וּם as ποιοῦντα (poiounta), meaning to make, which broadens the understanding of God's action from merely setting to actively creating a new status for the lowly.
This choice of word reflects an interpretive nuance, suggesting a more dynamic involvement of God in the elevation of the humble.

Another example of God’ s great and wonderful works. And the infinitive verb is here put for the indicative, he setteth up, &c., which is very frequent in the Hebrew, as 12:10.

God’s operations in the lower creation, though instances of goodness to it, have the wider end of blessing man in view.

Few words in the English language have such a rich variety of meaning and are used in so rich a variety of idiomatic expression as the word "set." A glance at any of the great dictionaries will convince anyone of the truth of this statement. The Standard Dictionary devotes three and a half columns to the word. In its primary meaning it there denotes 22 distinct things, in its secondary meaning 17 more, while 18 distinct phrases are given in which it is used, in some cases again in a variety of meanings. It is indeed a word calculated to drive a foreigner to despair. Some 70 Hebrew and about 30 Greek words in the original tongues of the Holy Scriptures have been rendered by the word "set," in the King James Version and also in the Revised Version (British and American). A careful comparative study of the original and of translations in other tongues will at once indicate that a lack of…

pe'-p'-l: In English Versions of the Bible represents something over a dozen Hebrew and Greek words. Of these, in the Old Testament, `am, is overwhelmingly the most common (about 2,000 times), with le'om, and goy, next in order; but the various Hebrew words are used with very little or no difference in force (e.g. Pr 14:28; but, on the other hand, in Ps 44 contrast verses 12 and 14). Of the changes introduced by the Revised Version (British and American) the only one of significance (cited explicitly in the Preface to the English Revised Version) is the frequent use of the plural "peoples" (strangely avoided in the King James Version except Re 10:11; 17:15), where other nations than Israel are in question.

1. General:
(1) "High place" is the normal translation of bamah, a word that means simply "elevation" (Jer 26:18; Eze 36:2, etc.; compare the use in Job 9:8 of the waves of the sea. For the plural as a proper noun see BAMOTH). In the King James Version of Eze 16:24,25,31,39, "high places" is the translation of ramah (the Revised Version (British and American) "lofty places"), a common word (see RAMAH) of exactly the same meaning, indistinguishable from bamah in 16:16. In three of these verses of Eze (16:24,31,39) ramah is paralleled by gabh, which again has precisely the same sense ("eminent place" in the King James Version, the English Revised Version), and the "vaulted…
High place
An eminence, natural or artificial, where worship by sacrifice or offerings was made (1 Kings 13:32; 2 Kings 17:29). The first altar after the Flood was built on a mountain (Gen. 8:20). Abraham also built an altar on a mountain (12:7, 8). It was on a mountain in Gilead that Laban and Jacob offered sacrifices (31:54). After the Israelites entered the Promised Land they were strictly enjoined to overthrow the high places of the Canaanites (Ex. 34:13; Deut. 7:5; 12:2, 3), and they were forbidden to worship the Lord on high places (Deut. 12:11-14), and were…
