Psalm 107:40

Verse 40 of 43. The 107th of 150 chapters in Psalms, in Poetry and Wisdom.

36There he makes the hungry live, that they may prepare a city to live in,

37sow fields, plant vineyards, and reap the fruits of increase.

38He blesses them also, so that they are multiplied greatly. He doesn’t allow their livestock to decrease.

39Again, they are diminished and bowed down through oppression, trouble, and sorrow.

40He pours contempt on princes, and causes them to wander in a trackless waste.

41Yet he lifts the needy out of their affliction, and increases their families like a flock.

42The upright will see it, and be glad. All the wicked will shut their mouths.

43Whoever is wise will pay attention to these things. They will consider the loving kindnesses of the LORD.
