Psalms 107:23
chevron_left

1
O give thanks
unto the
L
ORD
, for
he is
good: for his mercy
endureth
for ever.
2
Let the redeemed of the
L
ORD
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
L
ORD
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
L
ORD
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
L
ORD
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
L
ORD
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
L
ORD
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
L
ORD
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.
They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters;
24
These see the works of the
L
ORD
, 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
L
ORD
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
L
ORD
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
L
ORD
.
