Psalm 107:39
Print
Again, they are diminished and brought low through oppression, affliction, and sorrow.
Again, they are diminished and bowed down Through oppression, trouble, and sorrow.
When they are diminished and bowed down (humbled) Through oppression, misery, and sorrow,
When they are diminished and bowed down through oppression, trouble, and sorrow,
Again, they are minished and brought low through oppression, affliction, and sorrow.
When they are diminished and are humbled by cruel oppression and sorrow,
But when they do diminish— when they’re brought down by oppression, trouble, and grief—
When their numbers fall, and they grow weak, because of oppression, disaster and sorrow,
Sometimes you may be crushed by troubles and sorrows, until only a few of you are left to survive.
And they are diminished and brought low, through oppression, adversity, and sorrow:
But because of disaster and troubles, their families became small and weak.
But they may become weak and few in number, because of cruel enemies who give them trouble.
But then their numbers decreased, and they were humbled by oppression, disaster, and sorrow.
When they are diminished and brought low through oppression, evil, and sorrow,
When they are diminished and brought low through oppression, evil, and sorrow,
Because of ·disaster [oppression], ·troubles [evil], and sadness, ·their families [L they] ·grew smaller [diminished] and ·weaker [were brought low].
Again men are diminished, and brought low by oppression, evil and sorrow.
They became few in number and were humiliated because of oppression, disaster, and sorrow.
When God's people were defeated and humiliated by cruel oppression and suffering,
When they are diminished and are humbled by cruel oppression and sorrow,
Because of disaster, troubles and sadness, their families grew smaller and weaker.
But they became few in number, and humiliated by continued oppression, agony, and sorrow.
Again, they are diminished and brought low through oppression, affliction, and sorrow.
Again, they are minished and brought low through oppression, affliction, and sorrow.
Again, they are minished and brought low through oppression, affliction, and sorrow.
But when they decrease and are bowed down Through oppression, evil, and sorrow,
When they become few and they are bent down from the oppression of calamity and grief,
But others become poor through oppression, trouble, and sorrow.
God turned rivers into wasteland, springs of water into sunbaked mud; Luscious orchards became alkali flats because of the evil of the people who lived there. Then he changed wasteland into fresh pools of water, arid earth into springs of water, Brought in the hungry and settled them there; they moved in—what a great place to live! They sowed the fields, they planted vineyards, they reaped a bountiful harvest. He blessed them and they prospered greatly; their herds of cattle never decreased. But abuse and evil and trouble declined as he heaped scorn on princes and sent them away. He gave the poor a safe place to live, treated their clans like well-cared-for sheep.
But when they are diminished and brought down through oppression, affliction, and sorrow,
They became few in number and were humiliated because of oppression, disaster, and sorrow.
But he poured out contempt on princes, made them wander trackless wastes,
When they become few and lowly Because of oppression, misery, and sorrow,
When they are diminished and bowed down Through oppression, misery and sorrow,
Eventually their numbers diminish and they are humbled because of oppression, adversity, and affliction;
Because of disaster, troubles, and sadness, their families grew smaller and weaker.
As for their enemies, they decreased in number and were beaten down, because of painful distress and suffering.
Then the number of God’s people got smaller. They were made humble by trouble, suffering and sorrow.
Then their numbers decreased, and they were humbled by oppression, calamity and sorrow;
Then their numbers decreased, and they were humbled by oppression, calamity and sorrow;
When they are diminished and brought low Through oppression, affliction, and sorrow,
When the number of people becomes less and they are put to shame under a bad power and trouble and sorrow,
When they decrease in number and become impoverished through oppression, trouble, and sorrow,
When they are diminished and brought low through oppression, trouble, and sorrow,
When they are diminished and brought low through oppression, trouble, and sorrow,
When they are diminished and brought low through oppression, trouble, and sorrow,
When they are diminished and brought low through oppression, trouble, and sorrow,
Again, they are diminished and brought low through otzer (oppression), ra’ah (calamity, peril, trouble) and yagon (sorrow, grief).
When they are diminished and brought low through oppression, trouble, and sorrow,
When they are diminished and brought low through oppression, trouble, and sorrow,
after they were few and crushed by oppression, calamity and sorrow.
When His people lessen in number and are humbled through persecution, suffering, and brokenheartedness,
Again, they are diminished and bowed down through oppression, trouble, and sorrow.
And they were made few; and were travailed of tribulation of evils and of sorrow. (And then, they were made few; and were troubled with trials, and evils, and sorrow.)
And they are diminished, and bow down, By restraint, evil, and sorrow.
