1Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good! His gracious love exists forever.1O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
2Let those who have been redeemed by the LORD declare it— those whom he redeemed from the power of the enemy,2Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;
3those whom he gathered from other lands— from the east, west, north, and south. 3And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south.
4They wandered in desolate wilderness; they found no road to a city where they could live.4They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in.
5Hungry and thirsty, their spirits failed.5Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.
6Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.6Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.
7He led them in a straight way to find a city where they could live.7And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.
8Let them give thanks to the LORD for his gracious love and his awesome deeds for mankind.8Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
9He has satisfied the one who thirsts, filling the hungry with what is good.9For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.
10Some sat in deepest darkness, shackled with cruel iron,10Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron;
11because they had rebelled against the command of God, despising the advice of the Most High.11Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the counsel of the most High:
12He humbled them through suffering, as they stumbled without a helper.12Therefore he brought down their heart with labour; they fell down, and there was none to help.
13Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble; he delivered them from their distress.13Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.
14And he brought them out from darkness and the shadow of death, shattering their chains.14He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and brake their bands in sunder.
15Let them give thanks to the LORD for his gracious love, and for his awesome deeds to mankind.15Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
16For he shattered bronze gates and cut through iron bars.16For he hath broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of iron in sunder.
17Because of their rebellious ways, fools suffered for their iniquities.17Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted.
18They loathed all food, and even reached the gates of death.18Their soul abhorreth all manner of meat; and they draw near unto the gates of death.
19Yet when they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, he delivered them from certain destruction.19Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saveth them out of their distresses.
20He issued his command and healed them; he delivered them from their destruction.20He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.
21Let them give thanks to the LORD for his gracious love, and for his awesome deeds for mankind.21Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
22Let them offer sacrifices of thanksgiving and talk about his works with shouts of joy.22And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works with rejoicing.
23Those who go down to the sea in ships, who work in the great waters,23They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters;
24witnessed the works of the LORD— his awesome deeds in the ocean's depth.24These see the works of the LORD, and his wonders in the deep.
25He spoke and stirred up a windstorm that made its waves surge.25For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof.
26The people ascended skyward and descended to the depths, their courage melting away in their peril.26They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths: their soul is melted because of trouble.
27They reeled and staggered like a drunkard, as all their wisdom became useless.27They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits' end.
28Yet when they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, the LORD brought them out of their distress.28Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses.
29He calmed the storm and its waves quieted down.29He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still.
30So they rejoiced that the waves became quiet, and he led them to their desired haven.30Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired haven.
31Let them give thanks to the LORD for his gracious love and for his awesome deeds on behalf of mankind.31Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
32Let them exalt him in the assembly of the people and praise him in the counsel of the elders.32Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the elders.
33He turns rivers into a desert, springs of water into dry ground,33He turneth rivers into a wilderness, and the watersprings into dry ground;
34and a fruitful land into a salty waste, due to the wickedness of its inhabitants.34A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.
35He turns a desert into a pool of water, dry land into springs of water.35He turneth the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground into watersprings.
36There he settled the hungry, where they built a city to live in.36And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a city for habitation;
37They sowed fields and planted vineyards that yielded a productive harvest.37And sow the fields, and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits of increase.
38Then he blessed them, and they became numerous; he multiplied their cattle. 38He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; and suffereth not their cattle to decrease.
39But they became few in number, and humiliated by continued oppression, agony, and sorrow.39Again, they are minished and brought low through oppression, affliction, and sorrow.
40Having poured contempt on their nobles, causing them to err aimlessly in the way.40He poureth contempt upon princes, and causeth them to wander in the wilderness, where there is no way.
41Yet he lifted the needy from affliction and made them families like a flock.41Yet setteth he the poor on high from affliction, and maketh him families like a flock.
42The upright see it and rejoice, but the mouth of an evil person is shut.42The righteous shall see it, and rejoice: and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.
43Let whoever is wise observe these things, that they may comprehend the gracious love of the LORD.43Whoso is wise, and will observe these things, even they shall understand the lovingkindness of the LORD.
