Psalm 107:33-43
He turned rivers into a desert.
He turned flowing springs into thirsty ground.
He turned land that produced crops into a salty land where nothing could grow.
He did it because the people who lived there were evil.
He turned the desert into pools of water.
He turned the dry and cracked ground into flowing springs.
He brought hungry people there to live.
They built a city where they could make their homes.
They planted fields and vineyards
that produced large crops.
He blessed the people, and they greatly increased their numbers.
He kept their herds from getting smaller.
Then the number of God’s people got smaller.
They were made humble by trouble, suffering and sorrow.
The God who looks down on proud nobles
made them wander in a desert where no one lives.
But he lifted needy people out of their suffering.
He made their families increase like flocks of sheep.
Honest people see it and are filled with joy.
But no one who is evil has anything to say.
Let those who are wise pay attention to these things.
Let them think about the loving deeds of the Lord.
