Chapter 107

1


 

  Give thanks to Yahweh, For he is good, For his lovingkindness endures forever.  

 

 

-

2


 

  Let the redeemed by Yahweh say so, Whom he has redeemed from the hand of the adversary,  

 

 

-

3


 

  Gathered 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 desert way. They found no city to live in.  

 

 

-

5


 

  Hungry and thirsty, Their soul fainted in them.  

 

 

-

6


 

  Then they cried to Yahweh in their trouble, And he delivered them out of their distresses,  

 

 

-

7


 

  He led them also by a straight way, That they might go to a city to live in.  

 

 

-

8


 

  Let them praise Yahweh for his lovingkindness, For his wonderful works to the children of men!  

 

 

-

9


 

  For he satisfies the longing soul. He fills the hungry soul with good.  

 

 

-

10


 

  Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, Being bound in affliction and iron,  

 

 

-

11


 

  Because they rebelled against the words of God, And condemned the counsel of the Most High.  

 

 

-

12


 

  Therefore he brought down their heart with labor. They fell down, and there was none to help.  

 

 

-

13


 

  Then they cried to Yahweh in their trouble, And he saved them out of their distresses.  

 

 

-

14


 

  He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, And broke their bonds in sunder.  

 

 

-

15


 

  Let them praise Yahweh for his lovingkindness, For his wonderful works to the children of men!  

 

 

-

16


 

  For he has broken the gates of brass, And cut through bars of iron.  

 

 

-

17


 

  Fools are afflicted because of their disobedience, And because of their iniquities.  

 

 

-

18


 

  Their soul abhors all kinds of food. They draw near to the gates of death.  

 

 

-

19


 

  Then they cry to Yahweh in their trouble, He saves them out of their distresses.  

 

 

-

20


 

  He sends his word, and heals them, And delivers them from their graves.  

 

 

-

21


 

  Let them praise Yahweh for his lovingkindness, For his wonderful works to the children of men!  

 

 

-

22


 

  Let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving, And declare his works with singing.  

 

 

-

23


 

  Those who go down to the sea in ships, Who do business in great waters;  

 

 

-

24


 

  These see Yahweh's works, And his wonders in the deep.  

 

 

-

25


 

  For he commands, and raises the stormy wind, Which lifts up its waves.  

 

 

-

26


 

  They mount up to the sky; they go down again to the depths. Their soul melts away because of trouble.  

 

 

-

27


 

  They reel back and forth, and stagger like a drunken man, And are at their wits' end.  

 

 

-

28


 

  Then they cry to Yahweh in their trouble, He brings them out of their distress.  

 

 

-

29


 

  He makes the storm a calm, So that its waves are still.  

 

 

-

30


 

  Then are they glad because it is calm, So he brings them to their desired haven.  

 

 

-

31


 

  Let them praise Yahweh for his lovingkindness, For his wonderful works to the children of men!  

 

 

-

32


 

  Let them exalt him also in the assembly of the people, And praise him in the seat of the elders.  

 

 

-

33


 

  He turns rivers into a desert, Water springs into a thirsty ground,  

 

 

-

34


 

  And a fruitful land into a salt waste, For the wickedness of those who dwell in it.  

 

 

-

35


 

  He turns a desert into a pool of water, And a dry land into water springs.  

 

 

-

36


 

  There he makes the hungry to live, That they may prepare a city to live in,  

 

 

-

37


 

  Sow fields, plant vineyards, And reap the fruits of increase.  

 

 

-

38


 

  He blesses them also, so that they are multiplied greatly. He doesn't allow their cattle to decrease.  

 

 

-

39


 

  Again, they are diminished and bowed down Through oppression, trouble, and sorrow.  

 

 

-

40


 

  He pours contempt on princes, And causes them to wander in a trackless waste.  

 

 

-

41


 

  Yet he lifts the needy out of their affliction, And increases their families like a flock.  

 

 

-

42


 

  The upright will see it, and be glad. All the wicked will shut their mouths.  

 

 

-

43


 

  Whoever is wise will pay attention to these things. They will consider the lovingkindnesses of Yahweh. Psalm 108 A Song. A Psalm by David.
