Psalms 107

Psalm 107 calls the redeemed of YHWH to praise Him for deliverance from four types of distress: those lost in the wilderness, prisoners in chains, the sick and afflicted, and sailors in storms.[1][2] The psalm emphasizes that when people cry out to YHWH in their trouble, He delivers them from their distresses, and concludes by describing YHWH's power to transform the earth—turning fruitful lands into deserts as judgment on the wicked, and deserts into fertile lands as blessing for the humble.[1][2]
