Psalm 107:19 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 107:19

Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble
A time of affliction is a time of trouble, and a proper season for prayer; and by it persons are brought to the throne of grace, when humbled under the mighty hand of God, to seek for relief. Hezekiah in his affliction prayed to the Lord, though Asa sought to the physicians only, and not to the Lord; this is to be understood of such who are convinced of their folly, brought to a sense of sin and danger, and therefore cry to the Lord for his sparing mercy, and pardoning grace.

And he saveth them out of their distresses:
their afflictions, which were distressing to them, by removing their disorders and restoring them to health again; as follows.

Psalm 107:19 In-Context

17 Trastornados por su rebeldía,afligidos por su iniquidad,

18 todo alimento les causaba asco.¡Llegaron a las puertas mismas de la muerte!

19 En su angustia clamaron al SEÑOR,y él los salvó de su aflicción.

20 Envió su palabra para sanarlos,y así los rescató del sepulcro.

21 ¡Que den gracias al SEÑOR por su gran amor,por sus maravillas en favor de los hombres!
