Psalms
Chapter 107
1 O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his mercy
endureth for ever.
2 Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he hath redeemed from
the hand of the enemy;
3 And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the
west, from the north, and from the south.
4 They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no
city to dwell in.
5 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.
6 Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered
them out of their distresses.
7 And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a
city of habitation.
8 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his
wonderful works to the children of men!
9 For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul
with goodness.
10 Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound
in affliction and iron;
11 Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned
the counsel of the most High:
12 Therefore he brought down their heart with labour; they fell
down, and there was none to help.
13 Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saved
them out of their distresses.
14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and
brake their bands in sunder.
15 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his
wonderful works to the children of men!
16 For he hath broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of iron
in sunder.
17 Fools because of their transgression, and because of their
iniquities, are afflicted.
18 Their soul abhorreth all manner of meat; and they draw near unto
the gates of death.
19 Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saveth them
out of their distresses.
20 He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their
destructions.
21 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his
wonderful works to the children of men!
22 And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and
declare his works with rejoicing.
23 They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great
waters;
24 These see the works of the LORD, and his wonders in the deep.
25 For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up
the waves thereof.
26 They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths:
their soul is melted because of trouble.
27 They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at
their wits' end.
28 Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he bringeth
them out of their distresses.
29 He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still.
30 Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them
unto their desired haven.
31 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his
wonderful works to the children of men!
32 Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and
praise him in the assembly of the elders.
33 He turneth rivers into a wilderness, and the watersprings into
dry ground;
34 A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that
dwell therein.
35 He turneth the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground
into watersprings.
36 And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a
city for habitation;
37 And sow the fields, and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits
of increase.
38 He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; and
suffereth not their cattle to decrease.
39 Again, they are minished and brought low through oppression,
affliction, and sorrow.
40 He poureth contempt upon princes, and causeth them to wander in
the wilderness, where there is no way.
41 Yet setteth he the poor on high from affliction, and maketh him
families like a flock.
42 The righteous shall see it, and rejoice: and all iniquity shall
stop her mouth.
43 Whoso is wise, and will observe these things, even they shall
understand the lovingkindness of the LORD.
