107:1 O
give
thanks
unto
Jehovah;
For
he
is
good;
For
his
lovingkindness
[endureth]
for
ever.
107:2 Let
the
redeemed
of
Jehovah
say
[so],
Whom
he
hath
redeemed
from
the
hand
of
the
adversary,
107:3 And
gathered
out
of
the
lands,
From
the
east
and
from
the
west,
From
the
north
and
from
the
south.
107:4 They
wandered
in
the
wilderness
in
a
desert
way;
They
found
no
city
of
habitation.
107:5 Hungry
and
thirsty,
Their
soul
fainted
in
them.
107:6 Then
they
cried
unto
Jehovah
in
their
trouble,
And
he
delivered
them
out
of
their
distresses,
107:7 He
led
them
also
by
a
straight
way,
That
they
might
go
to
a
city
of
habitation.
107:8 Oh
that
men
would
praise
Jehovah
for
his
lovingkindness,
And
for
his
wonderful
works
to
the
children
of
men!
107:9 For
he
satisfieth
the
longing
soul,
And
the
hungry
soul
he
filleth
with
good.
107:10 Such
as
sat
in
darkness
and
in
the
shadow
of
death,
Being
bound
in
affliction
and
iron,
107:11 Because
they
rebelled
against
the
words
of
God,
And
contemned
the
counsel
of
the
Most
High:
107:12 Therefore
he
brought
down
their
heart
with
labor;
They
fell
down,
and
there
was
none
to
help.
107:13 Then
they
cried
unto
Jehovah
in
their
trouble,
And
he
saved
them
out
of
their
distresses.
107:14 He
brought
them
out
of
darkness
and
the
shadow
of
death,
And
brake
their
bonds
in
sunder.
107:15 Oh
that
men
would
praise
Jehovah
for
his
lovingkindness,
And
for
his
wonderful
works
to
the
children
of
men!
107:16 For
he
hath
broken
the
gates
of
brass,
And
cut
the
bars
of
iron
in
sunder.
107:17 Fools
because
of
their
transgression,
And
because
of
their
iniquities,
are
afflicted.
107:18 Their
soul
abhorreth
all
manner
of
food;
And
they
draw
near
unto
the
gates
of
death.
107:19 Then
they
cry
unto
Jehovah
in
their
trouble,
And
he
saveth
them
out
of
their
distresses.
107:20 He
sendeth
his
word,
and
healeth
them,
And
delivereth
[them]
from
their
destructions.
107:21 Oh
that
men
would
praise
Jehovah
for
his
lovingkindness,
And
for
his
wonderful
works
to
the
children
of
men!
107:22 And
let
them
offer
the
sacrifices
of
thanksgiving,
And
declare
his
works
with
singing.
107:23 They
that
go
down
to
the
sea
in
ships,
That
do
business
in
great
waters;
107:24 These
see
the
works
of
Jehovah,
And
his
wonders
in
the
deep.
107:25 For
he
commandeth,
and
raiseth
the
stormy
wind,
Which
lifteth
up
the
waves
thereof.
107:26 They
mount
up
to
the
heavens,
they
go
down
again
to
the
depths:
Their
soul
melteth
away
because
of
trouble.
107:27 They
reel
to
and
fro,
and
stagger
like
a
drunken
man,
And
are
at
their
wits'
end.
107:28 Then
they
cry
unto
Jehovah
in
their
trouble,
And
he
bringeth
them
out
of
their
distresses.
107:29 He
maketh
the
storm
a
calm,
So
that
the
waves
thereof
are
still.
107:30 Then
are
they
glad
because
they
are
quiet;
So
he
bringeth
them
unto
their
desired
haven.
107:31 Oh
that
men
would
praise
Jehovah
for
his
lovingkindness,
And
for
his
wonderful
works
to
the
children
of
men!
107:32 Let
them
exalt
him
also
in
the
assembly
of
the
people,
And
praise
him
in
the
seat
of
the
elders.
107:33 He
turneth
rivers
into
a
wilderness,
And
watersprings
into
a
thirsty
ground;
107:34 A
fruitful
land
into
a
salt
desert,
For
the
wickedness
of
them
that
dwell
therein.
107:35 He
turneth
a
wilderness
into
a
pool
of
water,
And
a
dry
land
into
watersprings.
107:36 And
there
he
maketh
the
hungry
to
dwell,
That
they
may
prepare
a
city
of
habitation,
107:37 And
sow
fields,
and
plant
vineyards,
And
get
them
fruits
of
increase.
107:38 He
blesseth
them
also,
so
that
they
are
multiplied
greatly;
And
he
suffereth
not
their
cattle
to
decrease.
107:39 Again,
they
are
diminished
and
bowed
down
Through
oppression,
trouble,
and
sorrow.
107:40 He
poureth
contempt
upon
princes,
And
causeth
them
to
wander
in
the
waste,
where
there
is
no
way.
107:41 Yet
setteth
he
the
needy
on
high
from
affliction,
And
maketh
[him]
families
like
a
flock.
107:42 The
upright
shall
see
it,
and
be
glad;
And
all
iniquity
shall
stop
her
mouth.
107:43 Whoso
is
wise
will
give
heed
to
these
things;
And
they
will
consider
the
lovingkindnesses
of
Jehovah.
