Psalm 107:9

Contemporary English Version (Anglicised) 2012

To everyone who is thirsty, he gives something to drink; to everyone who is hungry, he gives good things to eat.

See the chapter Copy

I will bless Zion with food, and even the poor will eat until they are full.

He gives justice to the poor and food to the hungry. The LORD sets prisoners free

The poor will eat and be full, and all who worship you will be thankful and live in hope.

Young lions may go hungry or even starve, but if you trust the LORD, you will never miss out on anything good.

Come, my children, listen as I teach you to respect the LORD.

I will bless my people with more food than they need, and the priests will enjoy the choice cuts of meat. I, the LORD, have spoken.

Those who feel tired and worn out will find new life and energy,

God blesses those people who want to obey him more than to eat or drink. They will be given what they want!

God gives the hungry good things to eat, and sends the rich away with nothing.
