Tehillim 107:36-43 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

36. And there He maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may found an ir moshav (an inhabited city);

37. And sow the sadot, and plant kramim, and acquire p'ri tevu'ah (fruits of increase).

38. He made a berakhah on them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; and He doth not permit their behemah to decrease.

39. Again, they are diminished and brought low through otzer (oppression), ra'ah (calamity, peril, trouble) and yagon (sorrow, grief).

40. He poureth contempt upon nedivim (nobles), and causeth them to wander in the wilderness, where there is no derech.

41. Yet setteth He the evyon (needy) up above oni (affliction), and maketh him mishpekhot like a tzon (flock).

42. The yesharim (upright ones) shall see it, and rejoice with simchah; and all iniquity shall shut its mouth.

43. Whosoever is chacham, and will be shomer over these things, even they shall understand the chasdei Hashem (lovingkindnesses of Hashem).
