Psalms 107:40 in Context — Psalms 107

38 E ele os abençoa, e se multiplicam muito, e o gado dele não diminui.

39 Mas [quando] eles se diminuem e se abatem, por causa da opressão, mal e aflição;

40 Ele derrama desprezo sobre os governantes, e os faz andar sem rumo pelos desertos, sem [terem] caminho.

41 Mas ao necessitado, ele levanta da opressão a um alto retiro, e faz famílias como a rebanhos.

42 Os corretos, ao verem, ficam alegres, e todo perverso se calará.
