Psalm 107
The LORD Is Good to His People


1Shout praises to the LORD!
He is good to us, and his love never fails.
2Everyone the LORD has rescued from trouble
should praise him,
3everyone he has brought from the east and the west,
the north and the south.

4Some of you were lost in the scorching desert,
far from a town.
5You were hungry and thirsty and about to give up.
6You were in serious trouble,
but you prayed to the LORD, and he rescued you.
7Right away he brought you to a town.
8You should praise the LORD for his love
and for the wonderful things he does for all of us.
9To everyone who is thirsty, he gives something to drink;
to everyone who is hungry,
he gives good things to eat.

10Some of you were prisoners
suffering in deepest darkness and bound by chains,
11because you had rebelled against God Most High
and refused his advice.
12You were worn out from working like slaves,
and no one came to help.
13You were in serious trouble,
but you prayed to the LORD, and he rescued you.
14He brought you out of the deepest darkness
and broke your chains.

15You should praise the LORD for his love
and for the wonderful things he does for all of us.
16He breaks down bronze gates and shatters iron locks.

17Some of you had foolishly committed a lot of sins
and were in terrible pain.
18The very thought of food was disgusting to you,
and you were almost dead.
19You were in serious trouble,
but you prayed to the LORD, and he rescued you.
20By the power of his own word, he healed you
and saved you from destruction.

21You should praise the LORD for his love
and for the wonderful things he does for all of us.
22You should celebrate by offering sacrifices
and singing joyful songs to tell what he has done.
