Psalms 107:10-16

Psalms 107

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

10Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, prisoners in affliction and chains,

11because they rebelled against the words of God and despised the counsel of the Most High.

12He humbled their hearts with hard labor; they stumbled, and there was no one to help.

13Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and He saved them from their distress.

14He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death and broke away their chains.

15Let them give thanks to the LORD for His loving devotion and His wonders to the sons of men.

16For He has broken down the gates of bronze and cut through the bars of iron.
