Darby - Psalms - 107

107:1  Give ye thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.

107:2  Let the redeemed of Jehovah say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the oppressor,

107:3  And gathered out of the countries, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the sea.

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  And he led them forth by a right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.

107:8  Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men;

107:9  For he hath satisfied the longing soul and filled the hungry soul with good.

107:10  Such as inhabit darkness and the shadow of death, bound in affliction and iron,

107:11  Because they had rebelled against the words ofGod, and had despised the counsel of the Most High; ...

107:12  And he bowed down their heart with labour; they stumbled, 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 broke their bands in sunder.

107:15  Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men;

107:16  For he hath broken the gates of bronze, and cut asunder the bars of iron.

107:17  Fools, because of their way of 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  Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men,

107:22  And let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works in joyful song.

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 speaketh, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof:

107:26  They mount up to the heavens, they go down to the depths; their soul is melted because of trouble;

107:27  They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and they 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, and the waves thereof are still:

107:30  And they rejoice because they are quiet; and he bringeth them unto their desired haven.

107:31  Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men;

107:32  Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the session of the elders.

107:33  He maketh rivers into a wilderness, and water-springs into dry ground;

107:34  A fruitful land into a plain of salt, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.

107:35  He maketh the wilderness into a pool of water, and the dry land into water-springs;

107:36  And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, and they establish a city of habitation;

107:37  And sow fields, and plant vineyards, which yield fruits of increase;

107:38  And he blesseth them, so that they are multiplied greatly; and he suffereth not their cattle to decrease.

107:39  And they are diminished and brought low, through oppression, adversity, and sorrow:

107:40  He poureth contempt upon nobles, and causeth them to wander in a pathless waste;

107:41  But he secureth the needy one on high from affliction, and maketh [him] families like flocks.

107:42  The upright shall see it, and rejoice; and all unrighteousness shall stop its mouth.

107:43  Whoso is wise, let him observe these things, and let them understand the loving-kindnesses of Jehovah.
