ABP - Psalms - 107

107:1  Make acknowledgment to the lord for he is gracious, for [2is into 3the 4eon 1his mercy]!

107:2  Let [5speak 1the ones 2having been ransomed 3by 4the lord]! whom he ransomed from out of the hand of the enemy.

107:3  And from out of the places he gathered them; from the east, and west, and north, and the sea.

107:4  They wandered in the wilderness in a waterless way; [3a city 4for a home 1they did not 2find].

107:5  Hungering and thirsting, their soul [2in 3them 1failed].

107:6  And they cried out to the lord in their being afflicted, and from their distresses he rescued them.

107:7  And he guided them in [2way 1the straight], to go into a city of habitation.

107:8  Let them make acknowledgment to the lord of his mercies, and of his wonders to the sons of men!

107:9  For he fills [2soul 1the empty]; and the soul hungering he filled up with good things;

107:10  even the ones sitting down in darkness and the shadow of death, being shackled in poorness and in iron;

107:11  for they rebelled against the oracles of God; and the counsel of the highest they provoked.

107:12  And [2was humbled 3with 4troubles 1their heart]; they weakened and there was no one helping.

107:13  And they cried out to the lord in their being afflicted; and from out of their distresses he delivered them.

107:14  And he led them from out of darkness and the shadow of death; and [2their bonds 1he tore up].

107:15  Let them make acknowledgment to the lord of his mercies, and his wonders to the sons of men!

107:16  For he broke the gates of brass; and the bars of iron he fractured in pieces.

107:17  He took hold of them from out of the way of their lawlessnesses; for on account of their lawlessnesses they were humbled.

107:18  [3every 4food 2abhorred 1Their soul], and they approached unto the gates of death.

107:19  And they cried out to the lord in their being afflicted; and [3from out of 4their distresses 1he delivered 2them].

107:20  He sent his word and healed them; and he rescued them from out of their corruptions.

107:21  Let them make acknowledgment to the lord of his mercies, and his wonders to the sons of men!

107:22  And let them sacrifice to him a sacrifice of praise! And let them declare his works in exultation!

107:23  The men going down into the sea in boats, doing work in [2waters 1many];

107:24  these men beheld the works of the lord, and his wonders in the deep.

107:25  He spoke, and [3is established 2wind 1the gale], and [2are raised up high 1its waves].

107:26  They ascend unto the heavens, and they go down unto the abysses; their soul [2in 3evils 1melts away].

107:27  They were disturbed; they were shaken as the one being intoxicated, and all their wisdom was swallowed down.

107:28  And they cry out to the lord in their being afflicted; and [3from out of 4their distresses 1he leads 2them].

107:29  And he gave orders to the gale, and it stood as a breeze, and [2were quiet 1its waves].

107:30  And they were glad for they were stilled; and he guided them unto the harbor of their want.

107:31  Let them make acknowledgment to the lord of his mercies, and his wonders to the sons of men!

107:32  Let them exalt him in the assembly of people, and [2in 3the chair 4of the elders 1let them praise him]!

107:33  He put rivers into a wilderness, and outlets of waters into a thirsty ground;

107:34  a ground bearing fruit into brine, from the evils of the ones dwelling in it.

107:35  He made a wilderness into lakes of waters; and [2ground 1a waterless] into outlets of waters.

107:36  And he settled there ones hungering, and they stood together cities of habitation.

107:37  And they sow fields, and plant vineyards, and they make fruit of produce.

107:38  And he blessed them, and they were multiplied exceedingly, and [3their cattle 1he does not 2diminish].

107:39  And they were made few and were maltreated by the affliction of evils and grief.

107:40  [2was poured out 1Contempt] upon their rulers, and he wandered them in an untrodden place and no street.

107:41  But he helps the needy from out of poorness; and he made [2as 3flocks 1families].

107:42  [2shall see 1The upright] and be glad; and all lawlessness shall obstruct its mouth.

107:43  Who is wise and will guard these things, and perceive the mercies of the lord?
