Context107:2 Let those delivered by the Lord speak out, 1
those whom he delivered 2 from the power 3 of the enemy,

from east and west,
from north and south.

they fainted from exhaustion. 5

he delivered them from their troubles.
107:7 He led them on a level road, 6
that they might find a city in which to live.
107:8 Let them give thanks to the Lord for his loyal love,
and for the amazing things he has done for people! 7
