Context of Psalms 107:3
1Praise Adonai, for He is good, for His lovingkindness endures forever. 2Let the redeemed of Adonai say so— whom He redeemed from the hand of the foe, whom He gathered out of the lands, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the sea. 4Some wandered in a desert, a wasteland. They found no way to an inhabited city. 5Hungry and thirsty, their souls ebbed away.
