Psalms 107:4-9

Psalms 107

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

4Some wandered in desert wastelands, finding no path to a city in which to dwell.

5They were hungry and thirsty; their soul fainted within them.

6Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and He delivered them from their distress.

7He led them on a straight path to reach a city where they could live.

8Let them give thanks to the LORD for His loving devotion and His wonders to the sons of men.

9For He satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things.
