Psalm 107
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good! His faithful love endures forever. Has the
Lord redeemed you? Then speak out! Tell others he has saved you from your enemies.
For he has gathered the
exiles from many lands, from east and west, from north and south. Some wandered in the desert, lost and homeless.
Hungry and thirsty, they nearly died.
"Lord, help!" they cried in their trouble, and he
rescued them from their distress. He led them straight to safety, to a city where they could live. Let them praise
the Lord for his great love and for all his wonderful deeds to them. For he satisfies the thirsty and fills the
hungry with good things.
Some sat in darkness and deepest gloom, miserable prisoners in chains. They
rebelled against the words of God, scorning the counsel of the Most High. That is why he broke them with hard labor;
They fell, and no one helped them rise again.
"Lord, help!" they cried in their trouble, and
he saved them from their distress. He led them from the darkness and deepest gloom; He snapped their chains. Let
them praise the Lord for his great love and for all his wonderful deeds to them. For he broke down their prison
gates of bronze; He cut apart their bars of iron. Some were fools in their rebellion; they suffered for their sins.
Their appetites were gone, and death was near. "Lord, help!" they cried in their trouble, And
he saved them from their distress. He spoke, and they were healed - snatched from the door of death. Let them
praise the Lord for his great love and for all his wonderful deeds to them.
Let them offer sacrifices
of thanksgiving and sing joyfully about his glorious acts. Some went off in ships, plying the trade routes of
the world. They, too, observed the Lord's power in action, His impressive works on the deepest seas. He
spoke, and the winds rose, stirring up the waves. Their ships were tossed to the heavens And sank again to the
depths; the sailors cringed in terror.
They reeled and staggered like drunkards And were at their wits'
end. "Lord, help!" they cried in their trouble, And he saved them from their distress. He calmed
the storm to a whisper and stilled the waves.
What a blessing was that stillness as he brought them
safely into harbor! Let them praise the Lord for his great love and for all his wonderful deeds to them. Let
them exalt him publicly before the congregation and before the leaders of the nation. He changes rivers into deserts,
and springs of water into dry land.
He turns the fruitful land into salty wastelands, because of the
wickedness of those who live there. But he also turns deserts into pools of water, the dry land into
flowing springs. He brings the hungry to settle there and build their cities. They sow their fields, plant their
vineyards, and harvest their bumper crops. How he blesses them!
They raise large families there, And
their herds of cattle increase. When they decrease in number and become impoverished Through oppression, trouble,
and sorrow, the Lord pours contempt on their princes, Causing them to wander in trackless wastelands.
But he rescues the poor from their distress And increases their families like vast flocks of sheep. The
godly will see these things and be glad, While the wicked are stricken silent. Those who are wise will take all
this to heart; They will see in our history the faithful love of the Lord.
