The Lord Will

Psalm 107:40

β€œHe poureth contempt upon princes, and causeth them to wander in the wilderness, where there is no way.”

KJV

Read in Psalm 107

Meaning

Power itself is shown as unstable and answerable within the poem's moral vision.

The lowly raised and wisdom invited

The closing movement contrasts oppression and pride with God's care for the needy and ends with a call to wisdom.

Read carefully

The psalm describes divine reversal; it does not delegate political violence to private actors.

Reflection

Value accountability, humility, and lawful checks on power.
