Third Example: The Sick and Afflicted

Psalms 107:17-22

Fools are afflicted because of their disobedience, and because of their iniquities.

Their soul abhors all kinds of food. They draw near to the gates of death.

Then they cry to the LORD in their trouble, he saves them out of their distresses.

He sends his word, and heals them, and delivers them from their graves.

Let them praise the LORD for his loving kindness, for his wonderful works to the children of men!

Let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works with singing.
