Psalms 107:2-9

2Let the people the Lord defended repeat these words. They are the people he defended from the power of their enemies

3and gathered from other countries, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south.

4They wandered around the desert on a deserted road without finding an inhabited city.

5They were hungry and thirsty. They began to lose hope.

6In their distress they cried out to the Lord. He rescued them from their troubles.

7He led them on a road that went straight to an inhabited city.

8Let them give thanks to the Lord because of his mercy. He performed his miracles for Adam’s descendants.

9He gave plenty to drink to those who were thirsty. He filled those who were hungry with good food.
