Jay P. Green's Literal Translation 1993
| 107:1 | Give thanks to Jehovah, for He is good; for His mercy endures forever. |
| 107:2 | Let the redeemed of Jehovah say so , whom He redeemed from the hand of the foe; |
| 107:3 | and gathered them from the lands; from east and from west; from north and from south. |
| 107:4 | They wandered in the wilderness, in a desert way; they found no city of dwelling; |
| 107:5 | hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them; |
| 107:6 | and they cried to Jehovah in their distress; He delivered them from their straits. |
| 107:7 | And He guided them in the right way; to go to a city of dwelling. |
| 107:8 | Let them thank Jehovah for His mercy, and His wonders to the sons of man. |
| 107:9 | He satisfies the thirsty soul, and He fills the hungry soul with good. |
| 107:10 | Those who live in the darkness, and in the shadow of death, being prisoners in affliction and iron, |
| 107:11 | because they rebelled against the words of God, and despised the counsel of the Most High; |
| 107:12 | and He humbled their heart by toil; they stumbled, and none were helping; |
| 107:13 | and they cried to Jehovah in their distress; He saved them out of their distresses; |
| 107:14 | He brought them out from darkness and the shadow of death; and He broke their bands apart. |
| 107:15 | Let them thank Jehovah for His mercy, and His wonders to the sons of man. |
| 107:16 | For He has broken the gates of bronze; and He cut bars of iron in two. |
| 107:17 | Fools are afflicted from the way of their rebellion, and from their iniquities; |
| 107:18 | their soul hates every food; and they touch the gates of death; |
| 107:19 | and they cried to Jehovah in their distress; He saved them from their straits; |
| 107:20 | He sent His word and healed them; and delivered them from all their pitfalls. |
| 107:21 | Let them thank Jehovah for His mercy, and His wonders to the sons of man. |
| 107:22 | And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and recount His works with rejoicing. |
| 107:23 | They who go down to the sea in ships, who work in the great waters; |
| 107:24 | these see the works of Jehovah, and His wonders in the deep. |
| 107:25 | For He speaks, and He raises stormy wind, and makes its waves high; |
| 107:26 | they go up to the heavens; they go down to the depths; their soul is melted because they are in evil; |
| 107:27 | they reel and stagger like a drunken man, and all their wisdom is swallowed up; |
| 107:28 | and they cry to Jehovah in their distress, and He saves them out of their straits. |
| 107:29 | He settles the storm to a whisper, so that its waves are still; |
| 107:30 | and they are glad, because they are quiet; and He led them to their desired haven. |
| 107:31 | Let them thank Jehovah for His mercy, and His wonders to the sons of mankind; |
| 107:32 | and exalt Him in the congregation of the people; and praise Him in the seat of the elders. |
| 107:33 | He sets rivers to a wilderness, and watersprings to thirsty ground; |
| 107:34 | a fruitful land to a salty desert; because of the wickedness of those who live in it. |
| 107:35 | He puts the wilderness into waterponds; and dry land into water-springs; |
| 107:36 | and He makes the hungry live there, and they may prepare a city of dwelling. |
| 107:37 | And they sow the fields, and plant vineyards, and make fruits of produce. |
| 107:38 | He also blesses them, so that they multiply greatly; and He does not allow their cattle to diminish; |
| 107:39 | but they are diminished and humbled, from coercion, evil and grief. |
| 107:40 | He pours scorn on nobles, and causes them to wander in a desert; there is no path. |
| 107:41 | But He raises the poor up from affliction, and He sets families like a flock. |
| 107:42 | The upright shall see and be glad; and all iniquity shuts its mouth. |
| 107:43 | Whoever is wise and will observe these things , they shall discern the mercies of Jehovah. |
