- 1
- O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
- 2
- Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;
- 3
- And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south.
- 4
- They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in.
- 5
- Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.
- 6
- Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.
- 7
- And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.
- 8
- Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
- 9
- For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.
- 10
- Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron;
- 11
- Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the counsel of the most High:
- 12
- Therefore he brought down their heart with labour; they fell down, and there was none to help.
- 13
- Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.
- 14
- He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and brake their bands in sunder.
- 15
- Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
- 16
- For he hath broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of iron in sunder.
- 17
- Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted.
- 18
- Their soul abhorreth all manner of meat; and they draw near unto the gates of death.
- 19
- Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saveth them out of their distresses.
- 20
- He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.
- 21
- Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
- 22
- And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works with rejoicing.
- 23
- They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters;
- 24
- These see the works of the LORD, and his wonders in the deep.
- 25
- For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof.
- 26
- They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths: their soul is melted because of trouble.
- 27
- They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits' end.
- 28
- Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses.
- 29
- He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still.
- 30
- Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired haven.
- 31
- Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
- 32
- Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the elders.
- 33
- He turneth rivers into a wilderness, and the watersprings into dry ground;
- 34
- A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.
- 35
- He turneth the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground into watersprings.
- 36
- And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a city for habitation;
- 37
- And sow the fields, and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits of increase.
- 38
- He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; and suffereth not their cattle to decrease.
- 39
- Again, they are minished and brought low through oppression, affliction, and sorrow.
- 40
- He poureth contempt upon princes, and causeth them to wander in the wilderness, where there is no way.
- 41
- Yet setteth he the poor on high from affliction, and maketh him families like a flock.
- 42
- The righteous shall see it, and rejoice: and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.
- 43
- Whoso is wise, and will observe these things, even they shall understand the lovingkindness of the LORD.
