Psalms 107:13

Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble
Their affliction, their hearts being brought down with labour, and they being and finding themselves in a state of darkness, in the shadow of death, in affliction and iron; or in soul troubles, under a sense of sin, and in a view of wrath and displeasure; under apprehensions of imminent danger, as the disciples in the storm; and therefore cry to the Lord, as they did,

Lord, save us, we perish,
( Matthew 8:2 Matthew 8:5 ) .

And he saved them out of their distresses;
from all their sins; from the curse of the law; from wrath to come; from hell and death; being both able and willing. The following verse further explains this.

Psalms 107:13 In-Context

11 Punished for defying God's Word, for turning your back on the High God's counsel -
12 A hard sentence, and your hearts so heavy, and not a soul in sight to help.
13 Then you called out to God in your desperate condition; he got you out in the nick of time.
14 He led you out of your dark, dark cell, broke open the jail and led you out.
15 So thank God for his marvelous love, for his miracle mercy to the children he loves;
