Psa 107:11

Psa 107:11because they had rebelled against God's commands, and rejected the instructions of the sovereign king.

Psa 107:33

Psa 107:33He turned streams into a desert, springs of water into arid land,

Psa 107:34

Psa 107:34and a fruitful land into a barren place, because of the sin of its inhabitants.

Psa 107:35

Psa 107:35As for his people, he turned a desert into a pool of water, and a dry land into springs of water.
