Let the redeemed of Yahweh say so,

Whom He has redeemed from the hand of the adversary

From the east and from the west,

From the north and from the [fn]south.

Hungry [fn]and thirsty,

Their soul fainted within them.

Prisoners in affliction and irons,

And they reached the gates of death.

And recount His works with joyful singing.

Those who go down to the sea in ships,

Who do business on many waters;

They have seen the works of Yahweh,

And His wondrous deeds in the deep.

He spoke and set up a stormy wind,

Which raised up the waves [fn]of the sea.

Their soul melted away in the [fn]calamity.

They staggered and swayed like a drunken man,

And all their wisdom was swallowed up.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:28 -

Then they cried to Yahweh in their trouble,

And He brought them out of their distresses.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:29 -

He caused the storm to stand still,

So that its waves were hushed.

So He led them to their desired haven.

And praise Him at the seat of the elders.

He [fn]makes rivers into a [fn]wilderness

And springs of water into a thirsty ground;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:34 -

A fruitful land into a salt waste,

Because of the evil of those who inhabited it.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:35 -

He makes a wilderness into a pool of water

And a dry land into springs of water;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:36 -

And there He causes the hungry to inhabit,

So that they may establish an inhabited city,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:37 -

And sow fields and plant vineyards,

And produce a fruitful harvest.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:38 -

And He does not let their cattle decrease.

But when they decrease and are bowed down

Through oppression, evil, and sorrow,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:40 -

He pours contempt upon nobles

And makes them wander in a pathless void.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:41 -

But He sets the needy [fn]securely on high away from affliction,

And makes his families like a flock.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:42 -

The upright see it and are glad;

But all unrighteousness shuts its mouth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:43 -

Who is wise? Let him keep these things,

And carefully consider the lovingkindnesses of Yahweh.
