KJV - Psalms - 107

107:1  O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

107:2  Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;

107:3  And gathered them 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 solitary way; they found no city to dwell in.

107:5  Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.

107:6  Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.

107:7  And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.

107:8  Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

107:9  For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.

107:10  Such as sit 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 labour; they fell down, and there was none to help.

107:13  Then they cried unto the Lord 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 bands in sunder.

107:15  Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, 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 meat; and they draw near unto the gates of death.

107:19  Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he saveth them out of their distresses.

107:20  He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.

107:21  Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

107:22  And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works with rejoicing.

107:23  They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters;

107:24  These see the works of the Lord, 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 heaven, they go down again to the depths: their soul is melted 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 the Lord 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 be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired haven.

107:31  Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

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

107:33  He turneth rivers into a wilderness, and the watersprings into dry ground;

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

107:35  He turneth the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground into watersprings.

107:36  And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a city for habitation;

107:37  And sow the fields, and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits of increase.

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

107:39  Again, they are minished and brought low through oppression, affliction, and sorrow.

107:40  He poureth contempt upon princes, and causeth them to wander in the wilderness, where there is no way.

107:41  Yet setteth he the poor on high from affliction, and maketh him families like a flock.

107:42  The righteous shall see it, and rejoice: and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.

107:43  Whoso is wise, and will observe these things, even they shall understand the lovingkindness of the Lord.
