Psalm 107:17-32
English Standard Version
Psalm 107:17-32
English Standard Version
17 Some were (A)fools through their sinful ways,
and because of their iniquities suffered affliction;
18 (B)they loathed any kind of food,
and they (C)drew near to (D)the gates of death.
19 (E)Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble,
and he delivered them from their distress.
20 He (F)sent out his word and (G)healed them,
and (H)delivered them from their destruction.
21 (I)Let them thank the Lord for his steadfast love,
for his wondrous works to the children of man!
22 And let them (J)offer sacrifices of thanksgiving,
and (K)tell of his deeds in (L)songs of joy!
23 Some (M)went down to the sea in ships,
doing business on the great waters;
24 they saw the deeds of the Lord,
his wondrous works in the deep.
25 For he (N)commanded and (O)raised the stormy wind,
which lifted up the waves of the sea.
26 They mounted up to heaven; they went down to the depths;
their courage (P)melted away in their evil plight;
27 they reeled and (Q)staggered like drunken men
and (R)were at their wits' end.[a]
28 (S)Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble,
and he delivered them from their distress.
29 He (T)made the storm be still,
and the waves of the sea were hushed.
30 Then they were glad that the waters[b] were quiet,
and he brought them to their desired haven.
31 (U)Let them thank the Lord for his steadfast love,
for his wondrous works to the children of man!
32 Let them (V)extol him in (W)the congregation of the people,
and praise him in the assembly of the elders.

Psalm 107:17-32
King James Version
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.
