Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on Psalm 107:6-43

6Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble,
and He delivered them from their distress.
7He led them on a straight path
to reach a city where they could live.
8Let them give thanks to the LORD for His loving devotion
and His wonders to the sons of men.
9For He satisfies the thirsty
and fills the hungry with good things.
10Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death,
prisoners in affliction and chains,
11because they rebelled against the words of God
and despised the counsel of the Most High.
12He humbled their hearts with hard labor;
they stumbled, and there was no one to help.
13Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble,
and He saved them from their distress.
14He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death
and broke away their chains.
15Let them give thanks to the LORD for His loving devotion
and His wonders to the sons of men.
16For He has broken down the gates of bronze
and cut through the bars of iron.
17Fools, in their rebellious ways,
and through their iniquities, suffered affliction.
18They loathed all food
and drew near to the gates of death.
19Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble,
and He saved them from their distress.
20He sent forth His word and healed them;
He rescued them from the Pit.
21Let them give thanks to the LORD for His loving devotion
and His wonders to the sons of men.
22Let them offer sacrifices of thanksgiving
and declare His works with rejoicing.
23Others went out to sea in ships,
conducting trade on the mighty waters.
24They saw the works of the LORD,
and His wonders in the deep.
25For He spoke and raised a tempest
that lifted the waves of the sea.
26They mounted up to the heavens, then sunk to the depths;
their courage melted in their anguish.
27They reeled and staggered like drunkards,
and all their skill was useless.
28Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble,
and He brought them out of their distress.
29He calmed the storm to a whisper,
and the waves of the sea were hushed.
30They rejoiced in the silence,
and He guided them to the harbor they desired.
31Let them give thanks to the LORD for His loving devotion
and His wonders to the sons of men.
32Let them exalt Him in the assembly of the people
and praise Him in the council of the elders.
33He turns rivers into deserts,
springs of water into thirsty ground,
34and fruitful land into fields of salt,
because of the wickedness of its dwellers.
35He turns a desert into pools of water
and a dry land into flowing springs.
36He causes the hungry to settle there,
that they may establish a city in which to dwell.
37They sow fields and plant vineyards
that yield a fruitful harvest.
38He blesses them, and they multiply greatly;
He does not let their herds diminish.
39When they are decreased and humbled
by oppression, evil, and sorrow,
40He pours out contempt on the nobles
and makes them wander in a trackless wasteland.
41But He lifts the needy from affliction
and increases their families like flocks.
42The upright see and rejoice,
and all iniquity shuts its mouth.
43Let him who is wise pay heed to these things
and consider the loving devotion of the LORD.
— Psalm 107:6-43
