Psalms 107:33-42

33He turneth rivers into a wilderness, and the watersprings into dry ground; 34A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell in it.1 35He turneth the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground into watersprings. 36And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a city for habitation; 37And sow the fields, and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits of increase. 38He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; and doest not let their cattle to decrease. 39Again, they are diminished and brought low through oppression, affliction, and sorrow. 40He poureth contempt upon princes, and causeth them to wander in the wilderness, where there is no way.2 41Yet he setteth the poor on high from affliction, and maketh him families like a flock.3 42The righteous shall see it, and rejoice: and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.
