Psalms 107

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.

1 (106-1) Give glory to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

2 (106-2) Let them say so that have been redeemed by the Lord, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy: and gathered out of the countries.

3 (106-3) From the rising and from the setting of the sun, from the north and from the sea.

4 (106-4) They wandered in a wilderness, in a place without water: they found not the way of a city for their habitation.

5 (106-5) They were hungry and thirsty: their soul fainted in them.

6 (106-6) And they cried to the Lord in their tribulation: and he delivered them out of their distresses.

7 (106-7) And he led them into the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.

8 (106-8) Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him: and his wonderful works to the children of men.

9 (106-9) For he hath satisfied the empty soul, and hath filled the hungry soul with good things.

10 (106-10) Such as sat in darkness and in the shadow of death: bound in want and in iron.

11 (106-11) Because they had exasperated the words of God: and provoked the counsel of the most High:

12 (106-12) And their heart was humbled with labours: they were weakened, and there was none to help them.

13 (106-13) Then they cried to the Lord in their affliction: and he delivered them out of their distresses.

14 (106-14) And he brought them out of darkness, and the shadow of death; and broke their bonds in sunder.

15 (106-15) Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him, and his wonderful works to the children of men.

16 (106-16) Because he hath broken gates of brass, and burst iron bars.

17 (106-17) He took them out of the way of their iniquity: for they were brought low for their injustices.

18 (106-18) Their soul abhorred all manner of meat: and they drew nigh even to the gates of death.

23 (106-23) They that go down to the sea in ships, doing business in the great waters:

24 (106-24) These have seen the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep.

25 (106-25) He said the word, and there arose a storm of wind: and the waves thereof were lifted up.

26 (106-26) They mount up to the heavens, and they go down to the depths: their soul pined away with evils.

27 (106-27) They were troubled, and reeled like a drunken man; and all their wisdom was swallowed up.

28 (106-28) And they cried to the Lord in their affliction: and he brought them out of their distresses.

29 (106-29) And he turned the storm into a breeze: and its waves were still.

30 (106-30) And they rejoiced because they were still: and he brought them to the haven which they wished for.

31 (106-31) Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him, and his wonderful works to the children of men.

32 (106-32) And let them exalt him in the church of the people: and praise him in the chair of the ancients.

33 (106-33) He hath turned rivers into a wilderness: and the sources of waters into dry ground:

34 (106-34) A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.

35 (106-35) He hath turned a wilderness into pools of waters, and a dry land into water springs.

36 (106-36) And hath placed there the hungry; and they made a city for their habitation.

37 (106-37) Anti they sowed fields, and planted vineyards: and they yielded fruit of birth.

38 (106-38) And he blessed them, and they were multiplied exceedingly: and their cattle he suffered not to decrease.

39 (106-39) Then they were brought to be few: and they were afflicted through the trouble of evils and sorrow.

40 (106-40) Contempt was poured forth upon their princes: and he caused them to wander where there was no passing, and out of the way.

41 (106-41) And he helped the poor out of poverty: and made him families like a flock of sheep.

42 (106-42) The just shall see, and shall rejoice, and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.

43 (106-43) Who is wise, and will keep these things; and will understand the mercies of the Lord?
