Psalms:107-108
Seeker Overlay ON
*
O give thanks unto the LORD ,
for he is good :
for his mercy endureth for ever .
*
Let the redeemed of the LORD say so ,
whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy ;
*
And gathered them out of the lands ,
from the east ,
and from the west ma #
arab #,
from the north ,
and from the south .
*
They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way ;
they found no city to dwell in .
*
Hungry and thirsty ,
their soul fainted in them .
*
Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble ,
and he delivered them out of their distresses .
*
And he led them forth by the right way ,
that they might go to a city of habitation .
*
Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness ,
and for his wonderful works to the children of men !
*
For he satisfieth the longing soul ,
and filleth the hungry soul with goodness .
*
Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death ,
being bound in affliction and iron ;
*
Because they rebelled against the words of God ,
and contemned the counsel of the most High :
*
Therefore he brought down their heart with labour ;
they fell down ,
and there was none to help .
*
Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble ,
and he saved them out of their distresses .
*
He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death ,
and brake #
their bands in sunder .
*
Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness ,
and for his wonderful works to the children of men !
*
For he hath broken the gates of brass ,
and cut #
the bars of iron in sunder .
*
Fools because of their transgression ,
and because of their iniquities ,
are afflicted .
*
Their soul abhorreth all manner of meat ;
and they draw near unto the gates of death .
*
Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble ,
and he saveth them out of their distresses .
*
He sent his word ,
and healed them ,
and delivered them from their destructions .
*
Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness ,
and for his wonderful works to the children of men !
*
And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving ,
and declare his works with rejoicing .
*
They that go down to the sea in ships ,
that do business in great waters ;
*
These see the works of the LORD ,
and his wonders in the deep .
*
For he commandeth ,
and raiseth the stormy wind ,
which lifteth up the waves thereof .
*
They mount up to the heaven ,
they go down again to the depths :
their soul is melted because of trouble .
*
They reel to and fro ,
and stagger like a drunken man ,
and are at their wits end .
*
Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble ,
and he bringeth them out of their distresses .
*
He maketh the storm a calm ,
so that the waves thereof are still .
*
Then are they glad because they be quiet ;
so he bringeth them unto their desired haven .
*
Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness ,
and for his wonderful works to the children of men !
*
Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people ,
and praise him in the assembly of the elders .
*
He turneth rivers into a wilderness ,
and the watersprings mayim #
into dry ground tsimma #
own #;
*
A fruitful land into barrenness ,
for the wickedness of them that dwell therein .
*
He turneth the wilderness into a standing water ,
and dry ground into watersprings mayim #.
*
And there he maketh the hungry to dwell ,
that they may prepare a city for habitation ;
*
And sow the fields ,
and plant vineyards ,
which may yield fruits of increase t @
buw #
ah #.
*
He blesseth them also ,
so that they are multiplied greatly m @#
od #;
and sufferethnot their cattle to decrease .
*
Again ,
they are minished and brought low through oppression ,
affliction ,
and sorrow .
*
He poureth contempt upon princes ,
and causeth them to wander in the wilderness ,
where there is no way .
*
Yet setteth he the poor on high from affliction ,
and maketh him families like a flock tso #
n #.
*
The righteous shall see it ,
and rejoice :
and all iniquity shall stop her mouth .
*
Whoso is wise ,
and will observe these things ,
even they shall understand the lovingkindness of the LORD .

Psalms:108:1 @
A Song or Psalm of David .
O God ,
my heart is fixed ;
I will sing and give praise ,
even with my glory .
*
Awake ,
psaltery and harp :
I myself will awake early .
*
I will praise thee ,
O LORD ,
among the people :
and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations .
*
For thy mercy is great above the heavens :
and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds .
*
Be thou exalted ,
O God ,
above the heavens :
and thy glory above all the earth ;
*
That thy beloved may be delivered :
save with thy right hand ,
and answer me .
*
God hath spoken in his holiness ;
I will rejoice ,
I will divide Shechem ,
and mete out the valley of Succoth .
*
Gilead is mine ;
Manasseh is mine ;
Ephraim also is the strength of mine head ro #
sh #;
Judah is my lawgiver ;
*
Moab is my washpot rachats #;
over Edom will I cast out my shoe na #
al #;
over Philistia will I triumph .
*
Who will bring me into the strong city ?
who will lead me into Edom ?
*
Wilt not thou ,
O God ,
who hast cast us off ?
and wilt not thou ,
O God ,
go forth with our hosts ?
*
Give us help from trouble :
for vain is the help of man .
*
Through God we shall do valiantly :
for he it is that shall tread down our enemies .
