Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)

107 Give ye thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.

² Let the redeemed of Jehovah say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the oppressor,

³ And gathered out of the countries, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the sea.

²³ They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters,

²⁴ These see the works of Jehovah, and his wonders in the deep.

²⁵ For he speaketh, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof:

²⁶ They mount up to the heavens, they go down to the depths; their soul is melted because of trouble;

²⁷ They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and they are at their wits' end:

²⁸ Then they cry unto Jehovah in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses;

²⁹ He maketh the storm a calm, and the waves thereof are still:

³⁰ And they rejoice because they are quiet; and he bringeth them unto their desired haven.

³¹ Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men;

³² Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the session of the elders.

37 Aye, my heart trembleth at this also, and leapeth up out of its place:

² Hear attentively the roar of his voice, and the murmur going forth from his mouth.

³ He sendeth it forth under the whole heaven, and his lightning unto the ends of the earth.

⁴ After it a voice roareth: he thundereth with the voice of his excellency, and holdeth not back the flashes when his voice is heard.

⁵ God thundereth marvellously with his voice, doing great things which we do not comprehend.

⁶ For he saith to the snow, Fall on the earth! and to the pouring rain, even the pouring rains of his might.

⁷ He sealeth up the hand of every man; that all men may know his work.

⁸ And the wild beast goeth into its lair, and they remain in their dens.

⁹ From the chamber [of the south] cometh the whirlwind; and cold from the winds of the north.

¹⁰ By the breath of God ice is given; and the breadth of the waters is straitened.

¹¹ Also with plentiful moisture he loadeth the thick clouds, his light dispels the cloud;

¹² And they are turned every way by his guidance, that they may do whatsoever he commandeth them upon the face of the circuit of the earth,

¹³ Whether he cause it to come as a rod, or for his land, or in mercy.

²⁵ And there shall be signs in sun and moon and stars, and upon the earth distress of nations in perplexity [at] the roar of the sea and rolling waves,

²⁶ men ready to die through fear and expectation of what is coming on the habitable earth, for the powers of the heavens shall be shaken.

²⁷ And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

²⁸ But when these things begin to come to pass, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws nigh.
