Psalm 107:5–8

5 They were hungry and thirsty,

and their lives ebbed away.

6 Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble,

and he delivered them from their distress.

7 He led them by a straight way

to a city where they could settle.

8 Let them give thanks to the Lord for his unfailing love

and his wonderful deeds for mankind,

5 Hungry and thirsty,

Their soul fainted in them.

6 Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble,

And he delivered them out of their distresses.

7 And he led them forth by the right way,

That they might go to a city of habitation.

8 Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness,

And for his wonderful works to the children of men!

5 Hungry and thirsty,

they nearly died.

6 “Lord, help!” they cried in their trouble,

and he rescued them from their distress.

7 He led them straight to safety,

to a city where they could live.

8 Let them praise the Lord for his great love

and for the wonderful things he has done for them.

5 Hungry and thirsty,

Their soul fainted in them.

6 Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble,

And He delivered them out of their distresses.

7 And He led them forth by the right way,

That they might go to a city for a dwelling place.

8 Oh, that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness,

And for His wonderful works to the children of men!

5 They were hungry and thirsty,

and they were discouraged.

6 In their misery they cried out to the Lord,

and he saved them from their troubles.

7 He led them on a straight road

to a city where they could live.

8 Let them give thanks to the Lord for his love

and for the miracles he does for people.

5 Hungry and thirsty,

Their soul fainted in them.

6 Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble,

And he delivered them out of their distresses,

7 He led them also by a straight way,

That they might go to a city of habitation.

8 Oh that men would praise Jehovah for his lovingkindness,

And for his wonderful works to the children of men!

5 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them: 6 Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses, 7 And he led them forth by a right way, that they might go to a city of habitation. 8 Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men;

5 They were hungry and thirsty. 

They began to lose hope. 

6 In their distress they cried out to the Lord. 

He rescued them from their troubles. 

7 He led them on a road that went straight to an inhabited city. 

8 Let them give thanks to the Lord because of his mercy. 

He performed his miracles for Adam’s descendants. 

5 They were hungry and thirsty;

their spirits failed within them.

6 Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble;

He rescued them from their distress.

7 He led them by the right path

to go to a city where they could live.

8 Let them give thanks to the Lord

for His faithful love

and His wonderful works for all humanity.

5 hungry and thirsty,

their soul fainted within them.

6 Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble,

and he delivered them from their distress;

7 he led them by a straight way,

until they reached an inhabited town.

8 Let them thank the Lord for his steadfast love,

for his wonderful works to humankind.

5 Hungry and thirsty,

their soul grew faint within them.

6 Then they cried out to Yahweh in their trouble.

He delivered them from their distresses

7 and led them by a straight way

to get to a city to inhabit.

8 Let them give thanks to Yahweh for his loyal love,

and his wonderful deeds for the children of humankind,

5 They were hungry and thirsty.

Their lives were slipping away.

6 Then they cried out to the Lord because of their problems.

And he saved them from their troubles.

7 He led them straight

to a city where they could settle down.

8 Let them give thanks to the Lord for his faithful love.

Let them give thanks for the miracles he does for his people.

5 They were hungry and thirsty;

Their soul fainted within them.

6 Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble;

He delivered them out of their distresses.

7 He led them also by a straight way,

To go to an inhabited city.

8 Let them give thanks to the Lord for His lovingkindness,

And for His wonders to the sons of men!
