1 O give thanks unto the LORD, for [he is] good: for his mercy [endureth] for ever.
[gsn]

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