Psalm 107:17-19

Let the Redeemed of the Lord Say So

17 Some were e fools through their sinful ways,
and because of their iniquities suffered affliction;
18 f they loathed any kind of food,
and they g drew near to h the gates of death.
19 i Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble,
and he delivered them from their distress.
