Psalms 107:36-43 New English Translation (NET)

36. He allowed the hungry to settle there,and they established a city in which to live.

37. They cultivated fields,and planted vineyards,which yielded a harvest of fruit.

38. He blessed them so that they became very numerous.He would not allow their cattle to decrease in number.

39. As for their enemies, they decreased in number and were beaten down,because of painful distress and suffering.

40. He would pour contempt upon princes,and he made them wander in a wasteland with no road.

41. Yet he protected the needy from oppression,and cared for his families like a flock of sheep.

42. When the godly see this, they rejoice,and every sinner shuts his mouth.

43. Whoever is wise, let him take note of these things!Let them consider the Lord’s acts of loyal love!
