Psa Psalms, psalm Book of Psalms, psalm 107
“Give thanks to YHWH, || For [He is] good, for His kindness [is] for all time”: Let the redeemed of YHWH say [so], || Whom He redeemed from the hand of an adversary. Psa 106:10And has gathered them from the lands, || From east and from west, || From north, and from the sea. They wandered in a wilderness, in a desert by the way, || They have not found a city of habitation. Heb 11:9; Heb 11:37; Heb 13:14Hungry—indeed—thirsty, || Their soul becomes feeble in them, And they cry to YHWH in their adversity, || He delivers them from their distress, Psa 22:5And causes them to tread in a right way, || To go to a city of habitation. They confess to YHWH His kindness, || And His wonders to the sons of men. For He has satisfied a longing soul, || And has filled a hungry soul [with] goodness. Psa 34:10; Psa 145:16Inhabitants of dark places and death-shade, || Prisoners of affliction and of iron, Job 36:8Because they changed the saying of God, || And despised the counsel of the Most High. And He humbles their heart with labor, || They have been feeble, and there is no helper. 2Ki 14:26And they cry to YHWH in their adversity, || He saves them from their distresses. He brings them out from the dark place, || And death-shade, || And He draws away their bands. They confess to YHWH His kindness, || And His wonders to the sons of men. For He has broken doors of bronze, || And He has cut bars of iron. Psa 116:16; Isa 45:2; Nam 1:13Fools, by means of their transgression, || And by their iniquities, afflict themselves. Their soul detests all food, || And they come near to the gates of death, Job 33:20And cry to YHWH in their adversity, || He saves them from their distresses, He sends His word and heals them, || And delivers [them] from their destructions. They confess to YHWH His kindness, || And His wonders to the sons of men, And they sacrifice sacrifices of thanksgiving, || And recount His works with singing. Psa 50:14; Psa 116:17Those going down [to] the sea in ships, || Doing business in many waters, They have seen the works of YHWH, || And His wonders in the deep. And He commands, and appoints a storm, || And it lifts up its billows, Jon 1:4; Mat 8:24They go up [to] the heavens, they go down [to] the depths, || Their soul is melted in evil. They reel to and fro, and move as a drunkard, || And all their wisdom is swallowed up. Isa 29:14; Ezk 7:26And they cry to YHWH in their adversity, || And He brings them out from their distresses. He calms a whirlwind, || And their billows are hushed. Mat 14:32And they rejoice because they are quiet, || And He leads them to the haven of their desire. They confess to YHWH His kindness, || And His wonders to the sons of men, And they exalt Him in [the] assembly of [the] people, || And praise Him in [the] seat of [the] elderly. He makes rivers become a wilderness, || And fountains of waters become dry land. A fruitful land becomes a barren place, || For the wickedness of its inhabitants. 1Ki 17:1; Jol 1:10He makes a wilderness become a pool of water, || And a dry land become fountains of waters. Isa 41:18And He causes the hungry to dwell there, || And they prepare a city of habitation. And they sow fields, and plant vineyards, || And they make fruits of increase. And He blesses them, and they multiply exceedingly, || And He does not diminish their livestock. And they are diminished, and bow down, || By restraint, evil, and sorrow. Psa 44:25He is pouring contempt on nobles, || And causes them to wander in vacancy—no way. Job 12:21And sets the needy on high from affliction, || And places families as a flock. 1Sa 2:8The upright see and rejoice, || And all perversity has shut her mouth. Job 5:16; Job 22:19Who [is] wise, and observes these? They understand the kind acts of YHWH!Deu 32:29; Jer 9:12
