Context of Psalms 107:13
11Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the counsel of the most High: 12Therefore he brought down their heart with labour; they fell down, and there was none to help. Then they cried unto Yhwh in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses. 14He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and brake their bands in sunder. 15Oh that men would praise Yhwh for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
