詩篇 107:10
- 14
Some sat in darkness, in utter darkness, prisoners suffering in iron chains,
because they rebelled against God's commands and despised the plans of the Most High.
So he subjected them to bitter labor; they stumbled, and there was no one to help.
Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress.
He brought them out of darkness, the utter darkness, and broke away their chains.
那些坐在黑暗中、死蔭裡的人被困苦和鐵鍊捆鎖，
是因他們違背神的話語，藐視至高者的旨意。
所以，他用勞苦治服他們的心；他們仆倒，無人扶助。
於是，他們在苦難中哀求耶和華；他從他們的禍患中拯救他們。
他從黑暗中和死蔭裡領他們出來，折斷他們的綁索。
