I give thanks unto the LORD, for he is gracious, and his mercy endureth forever.

He sent his word, and healed them; and they were saved from their destruction.

Let them give thanks whom the LORD hath redeemed, and delivered from the hand of the enemy,

O that men would therefore praise the LORD for his goodness; and declare the wonders that he doeth for the children of men!

For he satisfieth the greedy soul, and filleth the hungry soul with good.

They that go down to the sea in ships, and occupy their business in great waters,

So when they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, he delivered them out of their distress.

Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being fast bound in misery and iron,

Foolish men were plagued for their offense, and because of their wickedness.

He maketh the storm to cease, so that the waves are still.

Whoso is wise, and pondereth these things well, shall understand the loving-kindness of the LORD.

which turneth floods into dry land, and drieth up the watersprings!

- That they would offer unto him the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and tell out his works with gladness!

So when they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, he delivereth them out of their distress.

For at his word, the stormy wind ariseth, and lifteth up the waves thereof.

So they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.

They went astray in the wilderness in an untrodden way, and found no city to dwell in.

Again, he maketh the wilderness a standing water, and watersprings of a dry ground.

yet helpeth he the poor out of misery, and maketh him a household like a flock of sheep.

- That they would exalt him in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the seat of the elders,

and gathered them out of the lands, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south.

For he hath broken the gates of brass, and smitten the bars of iron in sunder.

So they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distress.

A fruitful land maketh he barren, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.

He led them forth by the right way, that they might go to the city where they dwelt.

O that men would therefore praise the LORD for his goodness, and declare the wonders that he doeth for the children of men!

Then are they glad, because they are at rest; and so he bringeth them unto the haven where they would be.

though he suffer them to be evil-entreated through tyrants, or let them wander out of the way in the wilderness,

O that men would therefore praise the LORD for his goodness, and declare the wonders that he doeth for the children of men!

They reel to and fro, they stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits' end.

O that men would therefore praise the LORD for his goodness, and declare the wonders that he doeth for the children of men!

because they were not obedient to the commandments of God, but lightly regarded the counsel of the most highest - he also brought down their hearts through heaviness.

The righteous will consider this and rejoice; the mouth of all wickedness shall be stopped.

He brought them out of darkness, and out of the shadow of death, and broke their bonds in sunder.

Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.

Their soul abhorred all manner of meat, and they were even hard at death's door.

He blesseth them, so that they multiply exceedingly, and suffereth not their cattle to decrease.

When they are minished and brought low through oppression, through any plague or trouble,

They are carried up to the heaven, and down again to the deep; their soul melteth away in the trouble.

that they may sow their land and plant vineyards, to yield them fruits of increase.

They fell down, and there was none to help them.

There he setteth the hungry, that they may build them a city to dwell in,

these men see the works of the LORD, and his wonders in the deep.
