Psalm 107:33-38 Part 2 of 3

He changes the rivers into deserts,

    and springs of water into dry, thirsty land.

He turns the fruitful land into salty wastelands,

    because of the wickedness of those who live there.

But he also turns deserts into pools of water,

    and dry land into springs of water.

He brings the hungry to settle there

    and to build their cities.

They sow their fields, plant their vineyards,

    and harvest their bumper crops.

How he blesses them!

    They raise large families there,

    and their herds of livestock increase.

 

But he also turns deserts into pools of water, and dry land into springs of water. He brings the hungry to settle there and to build their cities.
