Psalms 107:11

Compare all

9 For ^aHe satisfies the longing soul,
And fills the hungry soul with goodness.

10 Those who ^asat in darkness and in the shadow of death,
^bBound¹ in affliction and irons—

And¹ despised ^bthe counsel of the Most High,

12 Therefore He brought down their heart with labor;
They fell down, and there was ^anone to help.

13 Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble,
And He saved them out of their distresses.
