Psalms 106 — GMV
106
Verse 1
Alleluia.
Verse 2
Let them say so who have been redeemed by the Lord,
Verse 3
And gathered them out of the countries,
Verse 4
They wandered in the wilderness in a dry land;
Verse 5
Hungry and thirsty,
Verse 6
Then they cried to the Lord in their affliction,
Verse 7
And he guided them into a straight path,
Verse 8
Let them acknowledge to the Lord his mercies,
Verse 9
For he satisfies the empty soul,
Verse 10
Even them that sit in darkness and the shadow of death,
Verse 11
Because they rebelled against the words of God,
Verse 12
So their heart was brought low with troubles;
Verse 13
Then they cried to the Lord in their affliction,
Verse 14
And he brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death,
Verse 15
Let them acknowledge to the Lord his mercies,
Verse 16
For he broke to pieces the brazen gates,
Verse 17
He helped them out of the way of their iniquity;
Verse 18
Their soul abhorred all meat;
Verse 19
Then they cried to the Lord in their affliction,
Verse 20
He sent his word, and healed them,
Verse 21
Let them acknowledge to the Lord his mercies,
Verse 22
And let them offer to him the sacrifice of praise,
Verse 23
They that go down to the sea in ships,
Verse 24
These men have seen the works of the Lord,
Verse 25
He speaks, and the stormy wind arises,
Verse 26
They go up to the heavens,
Verse 27
They are troubled, they stagger as a drunkard,
Verse 28
Then they cry to the Lord in their affliction,
Verse 29
And he commands the storm, and it is calmed into a gentle breeze,
Verse 30
And they are glad, because they are quiet;
Verse 31
Let them acknowledge to the Lord his mercies,
Verse 32
Let them exalt him in the congregation of the people,
Verse 33
He turns rivers into a desert,
Verse 34
A fruitful land into saltness,
Verse 35
He turns a wilderness into pools of water,
Verse 36
And there he causes the hungry to dwell,
Verse 37
And they sow fields, and plant vineyards,
Verse 38
And he blesses them, and they multiply exceedingly,
Verse 39
Again they become few, and are brought low,
Verse 40
Contempt is poured upon their princes,
Verse 41
But he helps the poor out of poverty,
Verse 42
The upright shall see and rejoice;
Verse 43
Who is wise, and will observe these things,
