Psalms 107:40
38 He blesses them, and they multiply greatly; He does not let their herds diminish.
39 When they are decreased and humbled by oppression, evil, and sorrow,
He pours out contempt on the nobles and makes them wander in a trackless wasteland.
41 But He lifts the needy from affliction and increases their families like flocks.
42 The upright see and rejoice, and all iniquity shuts its mouth.
Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
