Second Example: Prisoners of Rebellion

Psalms 107:10-16

Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, prisoners in affliction and chains,

because they rebelled against the words of God and despised the counsel of the Most High.

He humbled their hearts with hard labor; they stumbled, and there was no one to help.

Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and He saved them from their distress.

He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death and broke away their chains.

Let them give thanks to the LORD for His loving devotion and His wonders to the sons of men.

For He has broken down the gates of bronze and cut through the bars of iron.
