1 Ἀλληλούϊα. Ἐξομολογεῖσθε τῷ Κυρίῳ, ὅτι χρηστὸς, ὅτι εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ.
107:1 Give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
2 Εἰπάτωσαν οἱ λελυτρωμένοι ὑπὸ Κυρίου, οὓς ἐλυτρώσατο ἐκ χειρὸς ἐχθροῦ,
107:2 Let the redeemed by Yahweh say so, whom he has redeemed from the hand of the adversary,
3 καὶ ἐκ τῶν χωρῶν συνήγαγεν αὐτούς· ἀπὸ ἀνατολῶν, καὶ δυσμῶν, καὶ βοῤῥᾶ, καὶ θαλάσσης.
107:3 and gathered out of the lands, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south.
4 Ἐπλανήθησαν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ἐν ἀνύδρῳ· ὁδὸν πόλεως κατοικητηρίου οὐχ εὗρον·
107:4 They wandered in the wilderness in a desert way. They found no city to live in.
5 Πεινῶντες καὶ διψῶντες, ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτῶν ἐν αὐτοῖς ἐξέλιπε.
107:5 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.
6 Καὶ ἐκέκραξαν πρὸς Κύριον ἐν τῷ θλίβεσθαι αὐτοὺς, καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἀναγκῶν αὐτῶν ἐῤῥύσατο αὐτούς·
107:6 Then they cried to Yahweh in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.
7 Καὶ ὡδήγησεν αὐτοὺς εἰς ὁδὸν εὐθεῖαν, τοῦ πορευθῆναι εἰς πόλιν κατοικητηρίου.
107:7 He led them also by a straight way, that they might go to a city to live in.
8 Ἐξομολογησάσθωσαν τῷ Κυρίῳ τὰ ἐλέη αὐτοῦ, καὶ τὰ θαυμάσια αὐτοῦ τοῖς υἱοῖς τῶν ἀνθρώπων.
107:8 Let them praise Yahweh for his loving kindness, for his wonderful deeds to the children of men!
9 Ὅτι ἐχόρτασε ψυχὴν κενὴν, καὶ πεινῶσαν ἐνέπλησεν ἀγαθῶν.
107:9 For he satisfies the longing soul. He fills the hungry soul with good.
10 Καθημένους ἐν σκότει καὶ σκιᾷ θανάτου, πεπεδημένους ἐν πτωχείᾳ καὶ σιδήρῳ·
107:10 Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron,
11 Ὅτι παρεπίκραναν τὰ λόγια τοῦ Θεοῦ, καὶ τὴν βουλὴν τοῦ ὑψίστου παρώξυναν·
107:11 because they rebelled against the words of God, and condemned the counsel of the Most High.
12 Καὶ ἐταπεινώθη ἐν κόποις ἡ καρδία αὐτῶν, ἠσθένησαν καὶ οὐκ ἦν ὁ βοηθῶν.
107:12 Therefore he brought down their heart with labor. They fell down, and there was no one to help.
13 Καὶ ἐκέκραξαν πρὸς Κύριον ἐν τῷ θλίβεσθαι αὐτοὺς, καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἀναγκῶν αὐτῶν ἔσωσεν αὐτούς.
107:13 Then they cried to Yahweh in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.
14 Καὶ ἐξήγαγεν αὐτοὺς ἐκ σκότους καὶ σκιᾶς θανάτου, καὶ τοὺς δεσμοὺς αὐτῶν διέῤῥηξεν.
107:14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and broke away their chains.
15 Ἐξομολογησάσθωσαν τῷ Κυρίῳ τὰ ἐλέη αὐτοῦ, καὶ τὰ θαυμάσια αὐτοῦ τοῖς υἱοῖς τῶν ἀνθρώπων.
107:15 Let them praise Yahweh for his loving kindness, for his wonderful deeds to the children of men!
16 Ὅτι συνέτριψε πύλας χαλκᾶς, καὶ μοχλοὺς σιδηροὺς συνέθλασεν.
107:16 For he has broken the gates of bronze, and cut through bars of iron.
17 Ἀντελάβετο αὐτῶν ἐξ ὁδοῦ ἀνομίας αὐτῶν, διὰ γὰρ τὰς ἀνομίας αὐτῶν ἐταπεινώθησαν.
107:17 Fools are afflicted because of their disobedience, and because of their iniquities.
18 Πᾶν βρῶμα ἐβδελύξατο ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτῶν, καὶ ἤγγισαν ἕως τῶν πυλῶν τοῦ θανάτου.
107:18 Their soul abhors all kinds of food. They draw near to the gates of death.
19 Καὶ ἐκέκραξαν πρὸς Κύριον ἐν τῷ θλίβεσθαι αὐτοὺς, καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἀναγκῶν αὐτῶν ἔσωσεν αὐτούς.
107:19 Then they cry to Yahweh in their trouble, and he saves them out of their distresses.
20 Ἀπέστειλε τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἰάσατο αὐτοὺς, καὶ ἐῤῥύσατο αὐτοὺς ἐκ τῶν διαφθορῶν αὐτῶν.
107:20 He sends his word, and heals them, and delivers them from their graves.
21 Ἐξομολογησάσθωσαν τῷ Κυρίῳ τὰ ἐλέη αὐτοῦ, καὶ τὰ θαυμάσια αὐτοῦ τοῖς υἱοῖς τῶν ἀνθρώπων·

22 Καὶ θυσάτωσαν αὐτῷ θυσίαν αἰνέσεως, καὶ ἐξαγγειλάτωσαν τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ ἐν ἀγαλλιάσει.
107:22 Let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his deeds with singing.
23 Οἱ καταβαίνοντες εἰς θάλασσαν ἐν πλοίοις, ποιοῦντες ἐργασίαν ἐν ὕδασι πολλοῖς,
107:23 Those who go down to the sea in ships, who do business in great waters,
24 αὐτοὶ εἶδον τὰ ἔργα Κυρίου, καὶ τὰ θαυμάσια αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ βυθῷ.
107:24 these see Yahweh’s deeds, and his wonders in the deep.
25 Εἶπε, καὶ ἔστη πνεῦμα καταιγίδος, καὶ ὑψώθη τὰ κύματα αὐτῆς.
107:25 For he commands, and raises the stormy wind, which lifts up its waves.
26 Ἀναβαίνουσιν ἕως τῶν οὐρανῶν, καὶ καταβαίνουσιν ἕως τῶν ἀβύσσων· ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτῶν ἐν κακοῖς ἐτήκετο,
107:26 They mount up to the sky; they go down again to the depths. Their soul melts away because of trouble.
27 ἐταράχθησαν, ἐσαλεύθησαν ὡς ὁ μεθύων, καὶ πᾶσα ἡ σοφία αὐτῶν κατεπόθη.
107:27 They reel back and forth, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits’ end.
28 Καὶ ἐκέκραξαν πρὸς Κύριον ἐν τῷ θλίβεσθαι αὐτοὺς, καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἀναγκῶν αὐτῶν ἐξήγαγεν αὐτούς.
107:28 Then they cry to Yahweh in their trouble, and he brings them out of their distress.
29 Καὶ ἐπέταξε τῇ καταιγίδι, καὶ ἔστη εἰς αὖραν, καὶ ἐσίγησαν τὰ κύματα αὐτῆς.
107:29 He makes the storm a calm, so that its waves are still.
30 Καὶ εὐφράνθησαν, ὅτι ἡσύχασαν, καὶ ὡδήγησεν αὐτοὺς ἐπὶ λιμένα θελήματος αὐτῶν.
107:30 Then they are glad because it is calm, so he brings them to their desired haven.
31 Ἐξομολογησάσθωσαν τῷ Κυρίῳ τὰ ἐλέη αὐτοῦ, καὶ τὰ θαυμάσια αὐτοῦ τοῖς υἱοῖς τῶν ἀνθρώπων.
107:31 Let them praise Yahweh for his loving kindness, for his wonderful deeds for the children of men!
32 Ὑψωσάτωσαν αὐτὸν ἐν ἐκκλησίᾳ λαοῦ, καὶ ἐν καθέδρᾳ πρεσβυτέρων αἰνεσάτωσαν αὐτόν.
107:32 Let them exalt him also in the assembly of the people, and praise him in the seat of the elders.
33 Ἔθετο ποταμοὺς εἰς ἐρήμον, καὶ διεξόδους ὑδάτων εἰς δίψαν·
107:33 He turns rivers into a desert, water springs into a thirsty ground,
34 Γῆν καρποφόρον εἰς ἅλμην, ἀπὸ κακίας τῶν κατοικούντων ἐν αὐτῇ.
107:34 and a fruitful land into a salt waste, for the wickedness of those who dwell in it.
35 Ἔθετο ἔρημον εἰς λίμνας ὑδάτων, καὶ γῆν ἄνυδρον εἰς διεξόδους ὑδάτων.
107:35 He turns a desert into a pool of water, and a dry land into water springs.
36 Καὶ κατῴκισεν ἐκεῖ πεινῶντας, καὶ συνεστήσαντο πόλεις κατοικεσίας·
107:36 There he makes the hungry live, that they may prepare a city to live in,
37 Καὶ ἔσπειραν ἀγροὺς, καὶ ἐφύτευσαν ἀμπελῶνας, καὶ ἐποίησαν καρπὸν γεννήματος.
107:37 sow fields, plant vineyards, and reap the fruits of increase.
38 Καὶ εὐλόγησεν αὐτοὺς, καὶ ἐπληθύνθησαν σφόδρα, καὶ τὰ κτήνη αὐτῶν οὐκ ἐσμίκρυνε.
107:38 He blesses them also, so that they are multiplied greatly. He doesn’t allow their livestock to decrease.
39 Καὶ ὠλιγώθησαν καὶ ἐκακώθησαν ἀπὸ θλίψεως κακῶν καὶ ὀδύνης.
107:39 Again, they are diminished and bowed down through oppression, trouble, and sorrow.
40 Ἐξεχύθη ἐξουδένωσις ἐπʼ ἄρχοντας αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐπλάνησεν αὐτοὺς ἐν ἀβάτῳ καὶ οὐχ ὁδῷ.
107:40 He pours contempt on princes, and causes them to wander in a trackless waste.
41 Καὶ ἐβοήθησε πένητι ἐκ πτωχείας, καὶ ἔθετο ὡς πρόβατα πατριάς·
107:41 Yet he lifts the needy out of their affliction, and increases their families like a flock.
42 Ὄψονται εὐθεῖς καὶ εὐφρανθήσονται, καὶ πᾶσα ἀνομία ἐμφράξει τὸ στόμα αὐτῆς.
107:42 The upright will see it, and be glad. All the wicked will shut their mouths.
43 Τίς σοφὸς καὶ φυλάξει ταῦτα, καὶ συνήσει τὰ ἐλέη τοῦ Κυρίου;
107:43 Whoever is wise will pay attention to these things. They will consider the loving kindnesses of Yahweh.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations). Verse numbers below follow the Hebrew/English numbering: 107.

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm CVI)

    This Psalm also hath the title Allelujah prefixed to it: and this twice. But some say, that one Allelujah belongeth to the end of the former Psalm, the other to the beginning of this.

    How then were "the gates of brass burst, and the bars of iron broken in sunder"? By His body; for then first was a body shown, immortal, and destroying the tyranny of death.

    … through an instrument or a servant, but as through His essential and hypostatic Word and Wisdom and Power, because but one action is observed in Father and Son, as for example, All things were made by Him, and He sent His Word and healed them, and That they may believe that Thou hast sent Me.
