Psalms 107:13-20

13In their distress they cried out to the Lord. He saved them from their troubles.

14He brought them out of the dark, out of death’s shadow. He broke apart their chains.

15Let them give thanks to the Lord because of his mercy. He performed his miracles for Adam’s descendants.

16He shattered bronze gates and cut iron bars in two.

17Fools suffered because of their disobedience and because of their crimes.

18All food was disgusting to them, and they came near death’s gates.

19In their distress they cried out to the Lord. He saved them from their troubles.

20He sent his message and healed them. He rescued them from the grave.
