1 # O give thanks <03034> (8685) unto the LORD <03068>, for he is good <02896>: for his mercy <02617> endureth for ever <05769>.
2 Let the redeemed <01350> (8803) of the LORD <03068> say <0559> (8799) so, whom he hath redeemed <01350> (8804) from the hand <03027> of the enemy <06862>;
3 And gathered <06908> (8765) them out of the lands <0776>, from the east <04217>, and from the west <04628>, from the north <06828>, and from the south <03220>.
4 They wandered <08582> (8804) in the wilderness <04057> in a solitary <03452> way <01870>; they found <04672> (8804) no city <05892> to dwell <04186> in.
5 Hungry <07457> and thirsty <06771>, their soul <05315> fainted <05848> (8691) in them.
6 Then they cried <06817> (8799) unto the LORD <03068> in their trouble <06862>, and he delivered <05337> (8686) them out of their distresses <04691>.
7 And he led them forth <01869> (8686) by the right <03477> way <01870>, that they might go <03212> (8800) to a city <05892> of habitation <04186>.
8 Oh that men would praise <03034> (8686) the LORD <03068> for his goodness <02617>, and for his wonderful works <06381> (8737) to the children <01121> of men <0120>!
9 For he satisfieth <07646> (8689) the longing <08264> (8802) soul <05315>, and filleth <04390> (8765) the hungry <07457> soul <05315> with goodness <02896>.
10 # Such as sit <03427> (8802) in darkness <02822> and in the shadow of death <06757>, being bound <0615> in affliction <06040> and iron <01270>;
11 Because they rebelled <04784> (8689) against the words <0561> of God <0410>, and contemned <05006> (8804) the counsel <06098> of the most High <05945>:
12 Therefore he brought down <03665> (8686) their heart <03820> with labour <05999>; they fell down <03782> (8804), and there was none to help <05826> (8802).
13 Then they cried <02199> (8799) unto the LORD <03068> in their trouble <06862>, and he saved <03467> (8686) them out of their distresses <04691>.
14 He brought them out <03318> (8686) of darkness <02822> and the shadow of death <06757>, and brake <05423> <00> their bands <04147> in sunder <05423> (8762).
15 Oh that men would praise <03034> (8686) the LORD <03068> for his goodness <02617>, and for his wonderful works <06381> (8737) to the children <01121> of men <0120>!
16 For he hath broken <07665> (8765) the gates <01817> of brass <05178>, and cut <01438> <00> the bars <01280> of iron <01270> in sunder <01438> (8765).
17 # Fools <0191> because <01870> of their transgression <06588>, and because of their iniquities <05771>, are afflicted <06031> (8691).
18 Their soul <05315> abhorreth <08581> (8762) all manner of meat <0400>; and they draw near <05060> (8686) unto the gates <08179> of death <04194>.
19 Then they cry <02199> (8799) unto the LORD <03068> in their trouble <06862>, and he saveth <03467> (8686) them out of their distresses <04691>.
20 He sent <07971> (8799) his word <01697>, and healed <07495> (8799) them, and delivered <04422> (8762) them from their destructions <07825>.
 - HEALING
21 Oh that men would praise <03034> (8686) the LORD <03068> for his goodness <02617>, and for his wonderful works <06381> (8737) to the children <01121> of men <0120>!
22 And let them sacrifice <02076> (8799) the sacrifices <02077> of thanksgiving <08426>, and declare <05608> (8762) his works <04639> with rejoicing <07440>.
23 # They that go down <03381> (8802) to the sea <03220> in ships <0591>, that do <06213> (8802) business <04399> in great <07227> waters <04325>;
24 These see <07200> (8804) the works <04639> of the LORD <03068>, and his wonders <06381> (8737) in the deep <04688>.
25 For he commandeth <0559> (8799), and raiseth <05975> (8686) the stormy <05591> wind <07307>, which lifteth up <07311> (8787) the waves <01530> thereof.
26 They mount up <05927> (8799) to the heaven <08064>, they go down <03381> (8799) again to the depths <08415> : their soul <05315> is melted <04127> (8709) because of trouble <07451>.
27 They reel to and fro <02287> (8799), and stagger <05128> (8799) like a drunken man <07910>, and are at their wits <02451>' end <01104> (8691).
28 Then they cry <06817> (8799) unto the LORD <03068> in their trouble <06862>, and he bringeth them out <03318> (8686) of their distresses <04691>.
29 He maketh <06965> (8686) the storm <05591> a calm <01827>, so that the waves <01530> thereof are still <02814> (8799).
30 Then are they glad <08055> (8799) because they be quiet <08367> (8799); so he bringeth <05148> (8686) them unto their desired <02656> haven <04231>.
31 Oh that men would praise <03034> (8686) the LORD <03068> for his goodness <02617>, and for his wonderful works <06381> (8737) to the children <01121> of men <0120>!
32 Let them exalt <07311> (8787) him also in the congregation <06951> of the people <05971>, and praise <01984> (8762) him in the assembly <04186> of the elders <02205>.
33 # He turneth <07760> (8799) rivers <05104> into a wilderness <04057>, and the watersprings <04325> <04161> into dry ground <06774>;
34 A fruitful <06529> land <0776> into barrenness <04420>, for the wickedness <07451> of them that dwell <03427> (8802) therein.
35 He turneth <07760> (8799) the wilderness <04057> into a standing <098> water <04325>, and dry <06723> ground <0776> into watersprings <04325> <04161>.
36 And there he maketh the hungry <07457> to dwell <03427> (8686), that they may prepare <03559> (8787) a city <05892> for habitation <04186>;
37 And sow <02232> (8799) the fields <07704>, and plant <05193> (8799) vineyards <03754>, which may yield <06213> (8799) fruits <06529> of increase <08393>.
38 He blesseth <01288> (8762) them also, so that they are multiplied <07235> (8799) greatly <03966>; and suffereth <04591> <00> not their cattle <0929> to decrease <04591> (8686).
39 Again, they are minished <04591> (8799) and brought low <07817> (8799) through oppression <06115>, affliction <07451>, and sorrow <03015>.
40 He poureth <08210> (8802) contempt <0937> upon princes <05081>, and causeth them to wander <08582> (8686) in the wilderness <08414>, where there is no way <01870>.
41 Yet setteth he the poor <034> on high <07682> (8762) from affliction <06040>, and maketh <07760> (8799) him families <04940> like a flock <06629>.
 - PROVISION - FINANCIAL
42 The righteous <03477> shall see <07200> (8799) it, and rejoice <08055> (8799): and all iniquity <05766> shall stop <07092> (8804) her mouth <06310>.
43 Whoso is wise <02450>, and will observe <08104> (8799) these things, even they shall understand <0995> (8709) the lovingkindness <02617> of the LORD <03068>.
