35. He turneth a wilderness into a pool of water, and a dry land into watersprings.
36. And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a city of habitation;
37. And sow fields, and plant vineyards, and get them fruits of increase.
38. He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; and he suffereth not their cattle to decrease.
39. Again, they are minished and bowed down through oppression, trouble, and sorrow.
40. He poureth contempt upon princes, and causeth them to wander in the waste, where there is no way.
41. Yet setteth he the needy on high from affliction, and maketh him families like a flock.
42. The upright shall see it, and be glad; and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.
43. Whoso is wise shall give heed to these things, and they shall consider the mercies of the Lord.
