- Give ye thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.
- Let the redeemed of Jehovah say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the oppressor,
- And gathered out of the countries, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the sea.
- They wandered in the wilderness in a desert way, they found no city of habitation;
- Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them:
- Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, [and] he delivered them out of their distresses,
- And he led them forth by a right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.
- Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men;
- For he hath satisfied the longing soul and filled the hungry soul with good.
- Such as inhabit darkness and the shadow of death, bound in affliction and iron,
- Because they had rebelled against the words of ·God, and had despised the counsel of the Most High; ...
- And he bowed down their heart with labour; they stumbled, and there was none to help:
- Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, [and] he saved them out of their distresses;
- He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and broke their bands in sunder.
- Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men;
- For he hath broken the gates of bronze, and cut asunder the bars of iron.
- Fools, because of their way of transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted;
- Their soul abhorreth all manner of food, and they draw near unto the gates of death:
- Then they cry unto Jehovah in their trouble, [and] he saveth them out of their distresses;
- He sendeth his word, and healeth them, and delivereth them from their destructions.
- Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men,
- And let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works in joyful song.
- They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters,
- These see the works of Jehovah, and his wonders in the deep.
- For he speaketh, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof:
- They mount up to the heavens, they go down to the depths; their soul is melted because of trouble;
- They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and they are at their wits' end:
- Then they cry unto Jehovah in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses;
- He maketh the storm a calm, and the waves thereof are still:
- And they rejoice because they are quiet; and he bringeth them unto their desired haven.
- Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men;
- Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the session of the elders.
- He maketh rivers into a wilderness, and water-springs into dry ground;
- A fruitful land into a plain of salt, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.
- He maketh the wilderness into a pool of water, and the dry land into water-springs;
- And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, and they establish a city of habitation;
- And sow fields, and plant vineyards, which yield fruits of increase;
- And he blesseth them, so that they are multiplied greatly; and he suffereth not their cattle to decrease.
- And they are diminished and brought low, through oppression, adversity, and sorrow:
- He poureth contempt upon nobles, and causeth them to wander in a pathless waste;
- But he secureth the needy one on high from affliction, and maketh [him] families like flocks.
- The upright shall see it, and rejoice; and all unrighteousness shall stop its mouth.
- Whoso is wise, let him observe these things, and let them understand the loving-kindnesses of Jehovah.
