Psalms 107:36-41

36And He has the hungry live there, So that they may establish 12an inhabited city,37And sow fields and 3plant vineyards, And 4gather a fruitful harvest.38He also blesses them and they 5multiply greatly, And He 6does not let their cattle decrease.

39When they 7become few and 8lowly Because of oppression, misery, and sorrow,40He 9pours contempt upon noblemen And 10makes them wander 11in a pathless wasteland.41But He 12sets the needy 13securely on high, away from affliction, And 14makes his families like a flock.
