Psalm 107

107Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.H3034H3068H2896H2617H57692Let the redeemed of the LORD say this--those he redeemed from the hand of the foe,H1350H3068H559H1350H3027H68623those he gathered from the lands, from east and west, from north and south.H6908H776H4217H4628H6828H32204Some wandered in desert wastelands, finding no way to a city where they could settle.H8582H4057H3452H1870H4672H5892H41865They were hungry and thirsty, and their lives ebbed away.H7457H6771H5315H58486Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.H6817H3068H6862H5337H46917He led them by a straight way to a city where they could settle.H1869H3477H1870H3212H5892H41868Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for men,H3034H3068H2617H6381H1121H1209for he satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things.H7646H8264H5315H4390H7457H5315H289610Some sat in darkness and the deepest gloom, prisoners suffering in iron chains,H3427H2822H6757H615H6040H127011for they had rebelled against the words of God and despised the counsel of the Most High.H4784H561H410H5006H6098H594512So he subjected them to bitter labor; they stumbled, and there was no one to help.H3665H3820H5999H3782H582613Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress.H2199H3068H6862H3467H469114He brought them out of darkness and the deepest gloom and broke away their chains.H3318H2822H6757H5423H4147H542315Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for men,H3034H3068H2617H6381H1121H12016for he breaks down gates of bronze and cuts through bars of iron.H7665H1817H5178H1438H1280H1270H143817Some became fools through their rebellious ways and suffered affliction because of their iniquities.H191H1870H6588H5771H603118They loathed all food and drew near the gates of death.H5315H8581H400H5060H8179H419419Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress.H2199H3068H6862H3467H469120He sent forth his word and healed them; he rescued them from the grave.H7971H1697H7495H4422H782521Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for men.H3034H3068H2617H6381H1121H12022Let them sacrifice thank offerings and tell of his works with songs of joy.H2076H2077H8426H5608H4639H744023Others went out on the sea in ships; they were merchants on the mighty waters.H3381H3220H591H6213H4399H7227H432524They saw the works of the LORD, his wonderful deeds in the deep.H7200H4639H3068H6381H468825For he spoke and stirred up a tempest that lifted high the waves.H559H5975H5591H7307H7311H153026They mounted up to the heavens and went down to the depths; in their peril their courage melted away.H5927H8064H3381H8415H5315H4127H745127They reeled and staggered like drunken men; they were at their wits' end.H2287H5128H7910H2451H110428Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and he brought them out of their distress.H6817H3068H6862H3318H469129He stilled the storm to a whisper; the waves of the sea were hushed.H6965H5591H1827H1530H281430They were glad when it grew calm, and he guided them to their desired haven.H8055H8367H5148H2656H423131Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for men.H3034H3068H2617H6381H1121H12032Let them exalt him in the assembly of the people and praise him in the council of the elders.H7311H6951H5971H1984H4186H220533He turned rivers into a desert, flowing springs into thirsty ground,H7760H5104H4057H4325H4161H677434and fruitful land into a salt waste, because of the wickedness of those who lived there.H6529H776H4420H7451H342735He turned the desert into pools of water and the parched ground into flowing springs;H7760H4057H98H4325H6723H776H4325H416136there he brought the hungry to live, and they founded a city where they could settle.H7457H3427H3559H5892H418637They sowed fields and planted vineyards that yielded a fruitful harvest;H2232H7704H5193H3754H6213H6529H839338he blessed them, and their numbers greatly increased, and he did not let their herds diminish.H1288H7235H3966H4591H929H459139Then their numbers decreased, and they were humbled by oppression, calamity and sorrow;H4591H7817H6115H7451H301540he who pours contempt on nobles made them wander in a trackless waste.H8210H937H5081H8582H8414H187041But he lifted the needy out of their affliction and increased their families like flocks.H34H7682H6040H7760H4940H662942The upright see and rejoice, but all the wicked shut their mouths.H3477H7200H8055H5766H7092H631043Whoever is wise, let him heed these things and consider the great love of the LORD.H2450H8104H995H2617H3068
