From the Magnificat:

"He has shown strength with his arm;
    he has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

He has brought down the powerful from their thrones
    and lifted up the lowly;

he has filled the hungry with good things
    and sent the rich away empty."

(Luke 1:51-53, NRSV updated)

In context, considering the power of rushing water, this is a pretty terrifying verse:

"But let justice roll down like water,
and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream."

This water is life to the poor and oppressed, and devastation to the rich.

This ain't the prosperity gospel.
