Awit ng Pagpapasalamat sa Kabutihan ng Diyos
107 Purihin(A) si Yahweh sa kanyang kabutihan!
Pag-ibig niya'y tunay, laging tapat kailanman.
2 Lahat ng niligtas,
tinubos ni Yahweh, bayaang magpuri,
mga tinulungan,
upang sa problema, sila ay magwagi.
3 Sa sariling bayan,
sila ay tinipo't pinagsama-sama,
silanga't kanluran
timog at hilaga, ay doon kinuha.
4 Mayro'ng naglumagak
sa ilang na dako, at doon nanahan,
sapagkat sa lunsod
ay wala nang lugar silang matirahan.
5 Wala nang makain
kaya't sila'y nagutom, nauhaw na lubha,
ang katawan nila
ay naging lupaypay, labis na nanghina.
6 Nang sila'y magipit,
kay Yahweh, sila ay tumawag,
at dininig naman
sa gipit na lagay, sila'y iniligtas.
7 Inialis sila
sa lugar na iyon at pinatnubayan,
tuwirang dinala
sa payapang lunsod at doon tumahan.
8 Kaya dapat namang
kay Yahweh ay magpasalamat,
dahil sa pag-ibig
at kahanga-hanga niyang pagliligtas.
9 Mga nauuhaw
ay pinapainom upang masiyahan,
mga nagugutom
ay pawang binubusog sa mabuting bagay.
10 Sa dakong madilim,
may mga nakaupo na puspos ng lungkot,
bilanggo sa dusa,
at sa kahirapan sila'y nagagapos.
11 Ang dahilan nito—
sila'y naghimagsik, lumaban sa Diyos;
mga pagpapayo ng Kataas-taasan ay hindi sinunod.
12 Nahirapan sila,
pagkat sa gawain sila'y hinagupit;
sa natamong hirap,
nang sila'y bumagsak ay walang lumapit.
13 Sa gitna ng hirap,
kay Yahweh sila ay tumawag;
at dininig naman
yaong kahilingan na sila'y iligtas.
14 Sa dakong madilim,
sila ay hinango sa gitna ng lungkot,
at ang tanikala
sa kamay at paa ay kanyang nilagot.
15 Kaya dapat namang
kay Yahweh ay magpasalamat,
dahil sa pag-ibig
at kahanga-hanga niyang pagliligtas.
16 Winawasak niya,
maging mga pinto na yari sa tanso,
ang rehas na bakal
ay nababaluktot kung kanyang mahipo.
17 May nangagkasakit,
dahil sa kanilang likong pamumuhay;
dahil sa pagsuway,
ang dinanas nila'y mga kahirapan.
18 Anumang pagkain
na makita nila'y di na magustuhan,
anupa't sa anyo,
di na magluluwat ang kanilang buhay.
19 Sa ganoong lagay,
sila ay tumawag kay Yahweh,
tinulungan sila
at sa kahirapan, sila ay tinubos.
20 Sa salita lamang
na kanyang pahatid sila ay gumaling,
at naligtas sila
sa kapahamakang sana ay darating.
21 Kaya't dapat namang
kay Yahweh ay magpasalamat,
dahil sa pag-ibig
at kahanga-hanga niyang pagliligtas.
22 Dapat ding dumulog,
na dala ang handog ng pasasalamat,
lahat ng ginawa
niya'y ibalita, umawit sa galak!
23 Mayroong naglayag
na lulan ng barko sa hangad maglakbay,
ang tanging layunin
kaya naglalayag, upang mangalakal.
24 Nasaksihan nila
ang kapangyarihan ni Yahweh,
ang kahanga-hangang
ginawa ni Yahweh na hindi maarok.
25 Nang siya'y mag-utos,
nagngalit ang dagat, hangin ay lumakas,
lumaki ang alon
na kung pagmamasdan, ay pagkatataas.
26 Ang sasakyan nila
halos ay ipukol mula sa ibaba,
kapag naitaas
ang sasakyang ito'y babagsak na bigla;
dahil sa panganib,
ang pag-asa nila ay halos mawala.
27 Ang kanilang anyo'y
parang mga lasing na pahapay-hapay,
dati nilang sigla't
mga katangia'y di pakinabangan.
28 Nang nababagabag,
kay Yahweh sila ay tumawag,
dininig nga sila
at sa kahirapan, sila'y iniligtas.
29 Ang bagyong malakas,
pinayapa niya't kanyang pinatigil,
pati mga alon,
na naglalakihan ay tumahimik din.
30 Nang tumahimik na,
sila ay natuwa, naghari ang galak,
at natamo nila
ang kanilang pakay sa ibayong dagat.
31 Kaya't dapat namang
kay Yahweh ay magpasalamat,
dahil sa pag-ibig
at kahanga-hanga niyang pagliligtas.
32 Itong Panginoon
ay dapat itanghal sa gitna ng madla,
dapat na purihin
sa kalipunan man ng mga matanda.
33 Nagagawa niyang
tuyuin ang ilog na tulad ng ilang,
maging mga batis
ay nagagawa ring parang lupang tigang.
34 Ang(B) lupang mataba,
kung kanyang ibigi'y nawawalang saysay,
dahilan sa sama
ng mga nilikhang doo'y nananahan.
35 Kahit naman ilang,
nagagawa niyang matabang lupain,
nagiging batisang
sagana sa tubig ang tuyong lupain.
36 Sa lupaing iyon,
ang mga nagugutom doon dinadala,
ipinagtatayo
ng kanilang lunsod at doon titira.
37 Sila'y nagbubukid,
nagtatanim sila ng mga ubasan,
umaani sila
ng saganang bunga, sa lupang tinamnan.
38 Sila'y pinagpala't
lalong pinarami ang kanilang angkan,
at dumarami rin
pati mga baka sa kanilang kawan.
39 Kapag pinahiya
ang bayan ng Diyos at nalupig sila,
ang bansang sumakop
na nagpapahirap at nagpaparusa,
40 sila'y susumbatan
nitong Panginoo't ang kanyang gagawin,
ikakalat sila sa hindi kilalang malayong lupain.
41 Ngunit itataas
ang nangagdurusa't laging inaapi,
parang mga kawan,
yaong sambahayan nila ay darami.
42 Nakikita ito
ng mga matuwid kaya nagagalak,
titikom ang bibig
ng mga masama at taong pahamak.
43 Kayong matalino,
ang bagay na ito'y inyong unawain,
pag-ibig ni Yahweh
na di kumukupas ay inyong tanggapin.
Psalm 107
King James Version
107 O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
2 Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;
3 And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south.
4 They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in.
5 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.
6 Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.
7 And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.
8 Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
9 For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.
10 Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron;
11 Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the counsel of the most High:
12 Therefore he brought down their heart with labour; they fell down, and there was none to help.
13 Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.
14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and brake their bands in sunder.
15 Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
16 For he hath broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of iron in sunder.
17 Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted.
18 Their soul abhorreth all manner of meat; and they draw near unto the gates of death.
19 Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he saveth them out of their distresses.
20 He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.
21 Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
22 And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works with rejoicing.
23 They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters;
24 These see the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep.
25 For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof.
26 They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths: their soul is melted because of trouble.
27 They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wit's end.
28 Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses.
29 He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still.
30 Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired haven.
31 Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
32 Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the elders.
33 He turneth rivers into a wilderness, and the watersprings into dry ground;
34 A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.
35 He turneth the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground into watersprings.
36 And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a city for habitation;
37 And sow the fields, and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits of increase.
38 He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; and suffereth not their cattle to decrease.
39 Again, they are minished and brought low through oppression, affliction, and sorrow.
40 He poureth contempt upon princes, and causeth them to wander in the wilderness, where there is no way.
41 Yet setteth he the poor on high from affliction, and maketh him families like a flock.
42 The righteous shall see it, and rejoice: and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.
43 Whoso is wise, and will observe these things, even they shall understand the lovingkindness of the Lord.
Psalm 107
Complete Jewish Bible
Book V: Psalms 107–150
107 Give thanks to Adonai; for he is good,
for his grace continues forever.
2 Let those redeemed by Adonai say it,
those he redeemed from the power of the foe.
3 He gathered them from the lands,
from the east and from the west,
from the north and from the sea.
4 They wandered in the desert, on paths through the wastes,
without finding any inhabited city.
5 They were hungry and thirsty,
their life was ebbing away.
6 In their trouble they cried to Adonai,
and he rescued them from their distress.
7 He led them by a direct path
to a city where they could live.
8 Let them give thanks to Adonai for his grace,
for his wonders bestowed on humanity!
9 For he has satisfied the hungry,
filled the starving with good.
10 Some lived in darkness, in death-dark gloom,
bound in misery and iron chains,
11 because they defied God’s word,
scorned the counsel of the Most High.
12 So he humbled their hearts by hard labor;
when they stumbled, no one came to their aid.
13 In their trouble they cried to Adonai,
and he rescued them from their distress.
14 He led them from darkness, from death-dark gloom,
shattering their chains.
15 Let them give thanks to Adonai for his grace,
for his wonders bestowed on humanity!
16 For he shattered bronze doors
and cut through iron bars.
17 There were foolish people who suffered affliction
because of their crimes and sins;
18 they couldn’t stand to eat anything;
they were near the gates of death.
19 In their trouble they cried to Adonai,
and he rescued them from their distress;
20 he sent his word and healed them,
he delivered them from destruction.
21 Let them give thanks to Adonai for his grace,
for his wonders bestowed on humanity!
22 Let them offer sacrifices of thanksgiving
and proclaim his great deeds with songs of joy.
23 Those who go down to the sea in ships,
plying their trade on the great ocean,
24 saw the works of Adonai,
his wonders in the deep.
25 For at his word the storm-wind arose,
lifting up towering waves.
26 The sailors were raised up to the sky,
then plunged into the depths.
At the danger, their courage failed them,
27 they reeled and staggered like drunk men,
and all their skill was swallowed up.
28 In their trouble they cried to Adonai,
and he rescued them from their distress.
29 He silenced the storm and stilled its waves,
30 and they rejoiced as the sea grew calm.
Then he brought them safely
to their desired port.
31 Let them give thanks to Adonai for his grace,
for his wonders bestowed on humanity!
32 Let them extol him in the assembly of the people
and praise him in the leaders’ council.
33 He turns rivers into desert,
flowing springs into thirsty ground,
34 productive land into salt flats,
because the people living there are so wicked.
35 But he also turns desert into pools of water,
dry land into flowing springs;
36 there he gives the hungry a home,
and they build a city to live in;
37 there they sow fields and plant vineyards,
which yield an abundant harvest.
38 He blesses them, their numbers grow,
and he doesn’t let their livestock decrease.
39 When their numbers fall, and they grow weak,
because of oppression, disaster and sorrow,
40 he pours contempt on princes
and leaves them to wander in trackless wastes.
41 But the needy he raises up from their distress
and increases their families like sheep.
42 When the upright see this, they rejoice;
while the wicked are reduced to silence.
43 Let whoever is wise observe these things
and consider Adonai’s loving deeds.
