Tehillim 107:20-35 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

20. He sent His Davar, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions [See Yn 1:1, 14; Mt 4:23].

21. Oh that men would praise Hashem for His chesed, and for His nifla'ot (wonderful works) to the Bnei Adam!

22. And let them sacrifice the zivkhei todah (sacrifices of thanksgiving), and recount His works with joyful singing.

23. They that go down to the yam in oniyot (ships), that do business on mayim rabbim (great waters);

24. These have seen the ma'asei Hashem, and His nifla'ot (wonders) in the deep.

25. For He commandeth, and raiseth up a ruach sa'arah (stormy wind), which lifteth up the galim (waves) thereof.

26. They [the galim] mount up to Shomayim, they went down again to the tehomot (depths); their nefesh melted in ra'ah (peril, trouble).

27. They reeled and staggered like a shikkor, and were at their wit's end.

28. Then they cried unto Hashem in their tzoros, and He brought them out of their distresses.

29. He made the sa'arah (storm) a calm, so that the galim (waves) thereof were still [Mk 4:41].

30. Then were they glad because they were quiet; so He brought them unto their makhoz chefetz (desired haven, city, district, boundary).

31. Oh that men would praise Hashem for His chesed, and for His nifla'ot (wonderful works) to the Bnei Adam!

32. Let them exalt Him also in the Kehal Am, and praise Him in the moshav zekenim (council of the elders).

33. He turneth neharot (rivers) into a midbar, and the springs of water into dry ground;

34. An eretz p'ri (fruitful land) into salt wasteland, because of the wickedness of them that dwell therein.

35. He turneth the midbar into an agam (pool, lake) of mayim, and dry ground into springs of water.
