Psalm 107:13-16 Part 2 of 2

"LORD, help!" they cried in their trouble,

    and he saved them from their distress.

He led them from the darkness and deepest gloom;

    he snapped their chains.

Let them praise the LORD for his great love

    and for the wonderful things he has done for them.

For he broke down their prison gates of bronze;

    he cut apart their bars of iron.

 

Let them praise the LORD for his great love and for the wonderful things he has done for them.

This is what the LORD says to Cyrus, his anointed one, 

    whose right hand he will empower.

Before him, mighty kings will be paralyzed with fear.

    Their fortress gates will be opened never to shut again.

    and cut through bars of iron."  (see all chapter 45)

They will fight you, but they will fail.

    For I am with you, and I will take care of you.

    I, the LORD, have spoken!"  (see all chapter 1)
