Psa.|107:1|-||a|Give thanks to Jehovah, for He is good,For His lovingkindness is forever.
Psa.|107:2|-|Let the |1a|redeemed of Jehovah say so,Whom He redeemed from the hand of the adversary,
Psa.|107:3|-|And |1a|gathered out of the lands,From the east and from the west,
From the north and from the south.
Psa.|107:4|-|They |1|wandered in the |a|wilderness, on the desert way;They found no city of habitation.
Psa.|107:5|-|Hungry and thirsty,Their soul fainted within them.
Psa.|107:6|-|Then they cried out to Jehovah in their trouble,And He delivered them from their distresses.
Psa.|107:7|-|And He led them on a straight wayThat they might come to a city of habitation.
Psa.|107:8|-|Let them give thanks to Jehovah for His lovingkindnessAnd for His wondrous deeds to the children of men.
Psa.|107:9|-|For He |a|satisfies the thirsty soul,And the |b|famished soul He fills with good.
Psa.|107:10|-|Some inhabited |a|darkness and the shadow of death,And were bound in affliction and irons,
Psa.|107:11|-|Because they rebelled against the words of GodAnd spurned the counsel of the Most High;
Psa.|107:12|-|Therefore He brought down their heart with labor;They stumbled, and there was no one to help them.
Psa.|107:13|-|Then they cried out to Jehovah in their trouble,And He saved them from their distresses.
Psa.|107:14|-|He brought them out of |a|darkness and the shadow of death,And He broke apart their bonds.
Psa.|107:15|-|Let them give thanks to Jehovah for His lovingkindnessAnd for His wondrous deeds to the children of men.
Psa.|107:16|-|For He breaks down the doors of bronzeAnd cuts down the bars of iron.
Psa.|107:17|-|Some were fools, because of their way of transgression;And because of their iniquities, they were afflicted.
Psa.|107:18|-|Their soul loathed all food,And they drew near to the gates of death.
Psa.|107:19|-|Then they cried out to Jehovah in their trouble,And He saved them out of their distresses.
Psa.|107:20|-|He sent forth His word and |a|healed them,And He delivered them from the pits of destruction.
Psa.|107:21|-|Let them give thanks to Jehovah for His lovingkindnessAnd for His wondrous deeds to the children of men.
Psa.|107:22|-|And let them offer sacrifices of thanksgivingAnd declare His doings in joyful song.
Psa.|107:23|-|Those who go down to the sea in ships,Conducting business on the mighty waters,
Psa.|107:24|-|These see Jehovah’s doingsAnd His wondrous deeds in the deep.
Psa.|107:25|-|For He commanded and raised up a storm wind,And it lifted up |1|the waves of the sea.
Psa.|107:26|-||1|They mounted up to the heavens; they went down to the depths;Their soul melted in the calamity.
Psa.|107:27|-|They reeled and staggered like a drunken man,And all their skill was swallowed up.
Psa.|107:28|-|Then they cried out to Jehovah in their trouble,And He brought them out of their distresses.
Psa.|107:29|-|He made the storm be still,And |1|the waves of the sea were |a|calm;
Psa.|107:30|-|And they rejoiced that they were quiet,And He brought them to the haven they desired.
Psa.|107:31|-|Let them give thanks to Jehovah for His lovingkindnessAnd for His wondrous deeds to the children of men.
Psa.|107:32|-|And let them exalt Him in the congregation of the peopleAnd praise Him in the assembly of the elders.
Psa.|107:33|-|He turns |a|rivers into a wilderness,And springs of water into thirsty ground;
Psa.|107:34|-|Fruitful land into a |a|salt flat,Because of the wickedness of those who dwell in it.
Psa.|107:35|-|He turns a wilderness into a pool of water,And a dry land into |a|springs of water.
Psa.|107:36|-|And He makes the hungry dwell there,That they may prepare a city of habitation
Psa.|107:37|-|And sow fields and plant vineyardsAnd get a fruitful yield.
Psa.|107:38|-|He also blesses them, and they are multiplied greatly;And He does not let their cattle decrease.
Psa.|107:39|-|When they are diminished and bowed downThrough oppression, trouble, and sorrow,
Psa.|107:40|-|He pours contempt on princes,And makes them wander in a pathless waste.
Psa.|107:41|-|But He raises the needy man high above afflictionAnd makes his families like flocks.
Psa.|107:42|-|The upright see it and rejoice;And all iniquity stops its mouth.
Psa.|107:43|-|Who is |a|wise? Then let him observe these thingsAnd consider the lovingkindness of Jehovah.
