Psalms 107:1-43 ASV14 - Bible AI

¹O give thanks unto Yahweh; for he is good; For his lovingkindness [endureth] forever.

²Let the redeemed of Yahweh say [so], Whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the adversary,

³And gathered out of the lands, From the east and from the west, From the north and from the south.

⁴They wandered in the wilderness in a desert way; They found no city of habitation.

⁵Hungry and thirsty, Their soul fainted in them.

⁶Then they cried unto Yahweh in their trouble, And he delivered them out of their distresses,

⁷He led them also by a straight way, That they might go to a city of habitation.

⁸Oh that men would praise Yahweh for his lovingkindness, And for his wonderful works to the children of men!

⁹For he satisfieth the longing soul, And the hungry soul he filleth with good.

¹⁰Such as sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, Being bound in affliction and iron,

¹¹Because they rebelled against the words of God, And contemned the counsel of the Most High:

¹²Therefore he brought down their heart with labor; They fell down, and there was none to help.

¹³Then they cried unto Yahweh in their trouble, And he saved them out of their distresses.

¹⁴He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, And brake their bonds in sunder.

¹⁵Oh that men would praise Yahweh for his lovingkindness, And for his wonderful works to the children of men!

¹⁶For he hath broken the gates of brass, And cut the bars of iron in sunder.

¹⁷Fools because of their transgression, And because of their iniquities, are afflicted.

¹⁸Their soul abhorreth all manner of food; And they draw near unto the gates of death.

¹⁹Then they cry unto Yahweh in their trouble, And he saveth them out of their distresses.

²⁰He sendeth his word, and healeth them, And delivereth [them] from their destructions.

²¹Oh that men would praise Yahweh for his lovingkindness, And for his wonderful works to the children of men!

²²And let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving, And declare his works with singing.

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

²⁴These see the works of Yahweh, And his wonders in the deep.

²⁵For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, Which lifteth up the waves thereof.

²⁶They mountain up to the heavens, they go down again to the depths: Their soul melteth away because of trouble.

²⁷They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, And are at their wits' end.

²⁸Then they cry unto Yahweh in their trouble, And he bringeth them out of their distresses.

²⁹He maketh the storm a calm, So that the waves thereof are still.

³⁰Then are they glad because they are quiet; So he bringeth them unto their desired haven.

³¹Oh that men would praise Yahweh for his lovingkindness, And for his wonderful works to the children of men!

³²Let them exalt him also in the assembly of the people, And praise him in the seat of the elders.

³³He turneth rivers into a wilderness, And watersprings into a thirsty ground;

³⁴A fruitful land into a salt desert, For the wickedness of them that dwell therein.

³⁵He turneth a wilderness into a pool of water, And a dry land into watersprings.

³⁶And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, That they may prepare a city of habitation,

³⁷And sow fields, and plant vineyards, And get them fruits of increase.

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

³⁹Again, they are diminished and bowed down Through oppression, trouble, and sorrow.

⁴⁰He poureth contempt upon princes, And causeth them to wander in the waste, where there is no way.

⁴¹Yet setteth he the needy on high from affliction, And maketh [him] families like a flock.

⁴²The upright shall see it, and be glad; And all iniquity shall stop her mouth.

⁴³Whoso is wise will give heed to these things; And they will consider the lovingkindnesses of Yahweh.
