Psalms 107

The Darby Translation DBY

1 Give ye thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.

2 Let the redeemed of Jehovah say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the oppressor,

3 And gathered out of the countries, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the sea.

4 They wandered in the wilderness in a desert way, they found no city of habitation;

5 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them:

6 Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, [and] he delivered them out of their distresses,

7 And he led them forth by a right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.

8 Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men;

9 For he hath satisfied the longing soul and filled the hungry soul with good.

10 Such as inhabit darkness and the shadow of death, bound in affliction and iron,

11 Because they had rebelled against the words of God, and had despised the counsel of the Most High; ...

12 And he bowed down their heart with labour; they stumbled, and there was none to help:

13 Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, [and] he saved them out of their distresses;

14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and broke their bands in sunder.

15 Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men;

16 For he hath broken the gates of bronze, and cut asunder the bars of iron.

17 Fools, because of their way of transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted;

18 Their soul abhorreth all manner of food, and they draw near unto the gates of death:

19 Then they cry unto Jehovah in their trouble, [and] he saveth them out of their distresses;

20 He sendeth his word, and healeth them, and delivereth them from their destructions.

21 Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men,

22 And let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works in joyful song.

23 They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters,

24 These see the works of Jehovah, and his wonders in the deep.

25 For he speaketh, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof:

26 They mount up to the heavens, they go down to the depths; their soul is melted because of trouble;

27 They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and they are at their wits' end:

28 Then they cry unto Jehovah in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses;

29 He maketh the storm a calm, and the waves thereof are still:

30 And they rejoice because they are quiet; and he bringeth them unto their desired haven.

31 Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men;

32 Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the session of the elders.

33 He maketh rivers into a wilderness, and water-springs into dry ground;

34 A fruitful land into a plain of salt, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.

35 He maketh the wilderness into a pool of water, and the dry land into water-springs;

36 And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, and they establish a city of habitation;

37 And sow fields, and plant vineyards, which yield fruits of increase;

38 And he blesseth them, so that they are multiplied greatly; and he suffereth not their cattle to decrease.

39 And they are diminished and brought low, through oppression, adversity, and sorrow:

40 He poureth contempt upon nobles, and causeth them to wander in a pathless waste;

41 But he secureth the needy one on high from affliction, and maketh [him] families like flocks.

42 The upright shall see it, and rejoice; and all unrighteousness shall stop its mouth.

43 Whoso is wise, let him observe these things, and let them understand the loving-kindnesses of Jehovah.

New International Version NIV

1 Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.

2 Let the redeemed of the LORD tell their story— those he redeemed from the hand of the foe,

3 those he gathered from the lands, from east and west, from north and south.

4 Some wandered in desert wastelands, finding no way to a city where they could settle.

5 They were hungry and thirsty, and their lives ebbed away.

6 Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.

7 He led them by a straight way to a city where they could settle.

8 Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for mankind,

9 for he satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things.

10 Some sat in darkness, in utter darkness, prisoners suffering in iron chains,

11 because they rebelled against God’s commands and despised the plans of the Most High.

12 So he subjected them to bitter labor; they stumbled, and there was no one to help.

13 Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress.

14 He brought them out of darkness, the utter darkness, and broke away their chains.

15 Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for mankind,

16 for he breaks down gates of bronze and cuts through bars of iron.

17 Some became fools through their rebellious ways and suffered affliction because of their iniquities.

18 They loathed all food and drew near the gates of death.

19 Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress.

20 He sent out his word and healed them; he rescued them from the grave.

21 Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for mankind.

22 Let them sacrifice thank offerings and tell of his works with songs of joy.

23 Some went out on the sea in ships; they were merchants on the mighty waters.

24 They saw the works of the LORD, his wonderful deeds in the deep.

25 For he spoke and stirred up a tempest that lifted high the waves.

26 They mounted up to the heavens and went down to the depths; in their peril their courage melted away.

27 They reeled and staggered like drunkards; they were at their wits’ end.

28 Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and he brought them out of their distress.

29 He stilled the storm to a whisper; the waves of the sea were hushed.

30 They were glad when it grew calm, and he guided them to their desired haven.

31 Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for mankind.

32 Let them exalt him in the assembly of the people and praise him in the council of the elders.

33 He turned rivers into a desert, flowing springs into thirsty ground,

34 and fruitful land into a salt waste, because of the wickedness of those who lived there.

35 He turned the desert into pools of water and the parched ground into flowing springs;

36 there he brought the hungry to live, and they founded a city where they could settle.

37 They sowed fields and planted vineyards that yielded a fruitful harvest;

38 he blessed them, and their numbers greatly increased, and he did not let their herds diminish.

39 Then their numbers decreased, and they were humbled by oppression, calamity and sorrow;

40 he who pours contempt on nobles made them wander in a trackless waste.

41 But he lifted the needy out of their affliction and increased their families like flocks.

42 The upright see and rejoice, but all the wicked shut their mouths.

43 Let the one who is wise heed these things and ponder the loving deeds of the LORD.
