Psalm 107:4–22

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 Jehovah in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses, ⁷And he led them forth by a right way, that they might go to a city of habitation. ⁸Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men; ⁹For he hath satisfied the longing soul and filled the hungry soul with good.

¹⁰Such as inhabit darkness and the shadow of death, bound in affliction and iron, ¹¹Because they had rebelled against the words of •God, and had despised the counsel of the Most High; … ¹²And he bowed down their heart with labour; they stumbled, and there was none to help: ¹³Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses; ¹⁴He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and broke their bands in sunder. ¹⁵Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men; ¹⁶For he hath broken the gates of bronze, and cut asunder the bars of iron.

¹⁷Fools, because of their way of 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 Jehovah in their trouble, and he saveth them out of their distresses; ²⁰He sendeth his word, and healeth them, and delivereth them from their destructions. ²¹Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men, ²²And let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works in joyful song.
