Psalm 107:32

Let them exalt him also in the assembly of the people, and praise him in the seat of the elders.

31Let them praise the LORD for his loving kindness, for his wonderful deeds for the children of men!
32Let them exalt him also in the assembly of the people, and praise him in the seat of the elders.
33He turns rivers into a desert, water springs into a thirsty ground,
34and a fruitful land into a salt waste, for the wickedness of those who dwell in it.
