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

1הֹד֣וּ לַיהוָ֣ה כִּי־ ט֑וֹב כִּ֖י לְעוֹלָ֣ם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃

2Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy;

2יֹ֭אמְרוּ גְּאוּלֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה אֲשֶׁ֥ר גְּ֝אָלָ֗ם מִיַּד־ צָֽר׃

3And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south.

3וּֽמֵאֲרָצ֗וֹת קִ֫בְּצָ֥ם מִמִּזְרָ֥ח וּמִֽמַּעֲרָ֑ב מִצָּפ֥וֹן וּמִיָּֽם׃

4They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in.

4תָּע֣וּ בַ֭מִּדְבָּר בִּישִׁימ֣וֹן דָּ֑רֶךְ עִ֥יר מ֝וֹשָׁ֗ב לֹ֣א מָצָֽאוּ׃

5Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.

5רְעֵבִ֥ים גַּם־ צְמֵאִ֑ים נַ֝פְשָׁ֗ם בָּהֶ֥ם תִּתְעַטָּֽף׃

6Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.

6וַיִּצְעֲק֣וּ אֶל־ יְ֭הוָה בַּצַּ֣ר לָהֶ֑ם מִ֝מְּצֽוּקוֹתֵיהֶ֗ם יַצִּילֵֽם׃

7And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.

7וַ֭יַּֽדְרִיכֵם בְּדֶ֣רֶךְ יְשָׁרָ֑ה לָ֝לֶ֗כֶת אֶל־ עִ֥יר מוֹשָֽׁב׃

8Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

8יוֹד֣וּ לַיהוָ֣ה חַסְדּ֑וֹ וְ֝נִפְלְאוֹתָ֗יו לִבְנֵ֥י אָדָֽם׃

9For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.

9כִּי־ הִ֭שְׂבִּיעַ נֶ֣פֶשׁ שֹׁקֵקָ֑ה וְנֶ֥פֶשׁ רְ֝עֵבָה מִלֵּא־ טֽוֹב׃

10Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron;

10יֹ֭שְׁבֵי חֹ֣שֶׁךְ וְצַלְמָ֑וֶת אֲסִירֵ֖י עֳנִ֣י וּבַרְזֶֽל׃

11Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the counsel of the most High:

11כִּֽי־ הִמְר֥וּ אִמְרֵי־ אֵ֑ל וַעֲצַ֖ת עֶלְי֣וֹן נָאָֽצוּ׃

12Therefore he brought down their heart with labour; they fell down, and there was none to help.

12וַיַּכְנַ֣ע בֶּעָמָ֣ל לִבָּ֑ם כָּ֝שְׁל֗וּ וְאֵ֣ין עֹזֵֽר׃

13Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.

13וַיִּזְעֲק֣וּ אֶל־ יְ֭הוָה בַּצַּ֣ר לָהֶ֑ם מִ֝מְּצֻֽקוֹתֵיהֶ֗ם יוֹשִׁיעֵֽם׃

14He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and brake their bands in sunder.

14יֽ֭וֹצִיאֵם מֵחֹ֣שֶׁךְ וְצַלְמָ֑וֶת וּמוֹסְר֖וֹתֵיהֶ֣ם יְנַתֵּֽק׃

15Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

15יוֹד֣וּ לַיהוָ֣ה חַסְדּ֑וֹ וְ֝נִפְלְאוֹתָ֗יו לִבְנֵ֥י אָדָֽם׃

16For he hath broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of iron in sunder.

16כִּֽי־ שִׁ֭בַּר דַּלְת֣וֹת נְחֹ֑שֶׁת וּבְרִיחֵ֖י בַרְזֶ֣ל גִּדֵּֽעַ׃

17Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted.

17אֱ֭וִלִים מִדֶּ֣רֶךְ פִּשְׁעָ֑ם וּֽ֝מֵעֲוֺֽנֹתֵיהֶ֗ם יִתְעַנּֽוּ׃

18Their soul abhorreth all manner of meat; and they draw near unto the gates of death.

18כָּל־ אֹ֭כֶל תְּתַעֵ֣ב נַפְשָׁ֑ם וַ֝יַּגִּ֗יעוּ עַד־ שַׁ֥עֲרֵי מָֽוֶת׃

19Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saveth them out of their distresses.

19וַיִּזְעֲק֣וּ אֶל־ יְ֭הוָה בַּצַּ֣ר לָהֶ֑ם מִ֝מְּצֻֽקוֹתֵיהֶ֗ם יוֹשִׁיעֵֽם׃

20He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.

20יִשְׁלַ֣ח דְּ֭בָרוֹ וְיִרְפָּאֵ֑ם וִֽ֝ימַלֵּ֗ט מִשְּׁחִיתוֹתָֽם׃ ‪‬׆‬

21Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

21יוֹד֣וּ לַיהוָ֣ה חַסְדּ֑וֹ וְ֝נִפְלְאוֹתָ֗יו לִבְנֵ֥י אָדָֽם׃ ‪‬׆‬

22And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works with rejoicing.

22וְ֭יִזְבְּחוּ זִבְחֵ֣י תוֹדָ֑ה וִֽיסַפְּר֖וּ מַעֲשָׂ֣יו בְּרִנָּֽה׃ ‪‬׆‬

23They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters;

23יוֹרְדֵ֣י הַ֭יָּם בָּאֳנִיּ֑וֹת עֹשֵׂ֥י מְ֝לָאכָ֗ה בְּמַ֣יִם רַבִּֽים׃ ‪‬׆‬

24These see the works of the LORD, and his wonders in the deep.

24הֵ֣מָּה רָ֭אוּ מַעֲשֵׂ֣י יְהוָ֑ה וְ֝נִפְלְאוֹתָ֗יו בִּמְצוּלָֽה׃ ‪‬׆‬

25For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof.

25וַיֹּ֗אמֶר וַֽ֭יַּעֲמֵד ר֣וּחַ סְעָרָ֑ה וַתְּרוֹמֵ֥ם גַּלָּֽיו׃ ‪‬׆‬

26They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths: their soul is melted because of trouble.

26יַעֲל֣וּ שָׁ֭מַיִם יֵרְד֣וּ תְהוֹמ֑וֹת נַ֝פְשָׁ֗ם בְּרָעָ֥ה תִתְמוֹגָֽג׃

27They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits' end.

27יָח֣וֹגּוּ וְ֭יָנוּעוּ כַּשִּׁכּ֑וֹר וְכָל־ חָ֝כְמָתָ֗ם תִּתְבַּלָּֽע׃

28Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses.

28וַיִּצְעֲק֣וּ אֶל־ יְ֭הוָה בַּצַּ֣ר לָהֶ֑ם וּֽ֝מִמְּצֽוּקֹתֵיהֶ֗ם יוֹצִיאֵֽם׃

29He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still.

29יָקֵ֣ם סְ֭עָרָה לִדְמָמָ֑ה וַ֝יֶּחֱשׁ֗וּ גַּלֵּיהֶֽם׃

30Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired haven.

30וַיִּשְׂמְח֥וּ כִֽי־ יִשְׁתֹּ֑קוּ וַ֝יַּנְחֵ֗ם אֶל־ מְח֥וֹז חֶפְצָֽם׃

31Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

31יוֹד֣וּ לַיהוָ֣ה חַסְדּ֑וֹ וְ֝נִפְלְאוֹתָ֗יו לִבְנֵ֥י אָדָֽם׃

32Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the elders.

32וִֽ֭ירֹמְמוּהוּ בִּקְהַל־ עָ֑ם וּבְמוֹשַׁ֖ב זְקֵנִ֣ים יְהַלְלֽוּהוּ׃

33He turneth rivers into a wilderness, and the watersprings into dry ground;

33יָשֵׂ֣ם נְהָר֣וֹת לְמִדְבָּ֑ר וּמֹצָ֥אֵי מַ֝֗יִם לְצִמָּאֽוֹן׃

34A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.

34אֶ֣רֶץ פְּ֭רִי לִמְלֵחָ֑ה מֵ֝רָעַ֗ת יֹ֣שְׁבֵי בָֽהּ׃

35He turneth the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground into watersprings.

35יָשֵׂ֣ם מִ֭דְבָּר לַֽאֲגַם־ מַ֑יִם וְאֶ֥רֶץ צִ֝יָּ֗ה לְמֹצָ֥אֵי מָֽיִם׃

36And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a city for habitation;

36וַיּ֣וֹשֶׁב שָׁ֣ם רְעֵבִ֑ים וַ֝יְכוֹנְנ֗וּ עִ֣יר מוֹשָֽׁב׃

37And sow the fields, and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits of increase.

37וַיִּזְרְע֣וּ שָׂ֭דוֹת וַיִּטְּע֣וּ כְרָמִ֑ים וַ֝יַּעֲשׂ֗וּ פְּרִ֣י תְבֽוּאָה׃

38He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; and suffereth not their cattle to decrease.

38וַיְבָרֲכֵ֣ם וַיִּרְבּ֣וּ מְאֹ֑ד וּ֝בְהֶמְתָּ֗ם לֹ֣א יַמְעִֽיט׃

39Again, they are minished and brought low through oppression, affliction, and sorrow.

39וַיִּמְעֲט֥וּ וַיָּשֹׁ֑חוּ מֵעֹ֖צֶר רָעָ֣ה וְיָגֽוֹן׃ ‪‬׆‬

40He poureth contempt upon princes, and causeth them to wander in the wilderness, where there is no way.

40שֹׁפֵ֣ךְ בּ֭וּז עַל־ נְדִיבִ֑ים וַ֝יַּתְעֵ֗ם בְּתֹ֣הוּ לֹא־ דָֽרֶךְ׃

41Yet setteth he the poor on high from affliction, and maketh him families like a flock.

41וַיְשַׂגֵּ֣ב אֶבְי֣וֹן מֵע֑וֹנִי וַיָּ֥שֶׂם כַּ֝צֹּ֗אן מִשְׁפָּחֽוֹת׃

42The righteous shall see it, and rejoice: and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.

42יִרְא֣וּ יְשָׁרִ֣ים וְיִשְׂמָ֑חוּ וְכָל־ עַ֝וְלָ֗ה קָ֣פְצָה פִּֽיהָ׃

43Whoso is wise, and will observe these things, even they shall understand the lovingkindness of the LORD.

43מִי־ חָכָ֥ם וְיִשְׁמָר־ אֵ֑לֶּה וְ֝יִתְבּֽוֹנְנ֗וּ חַֽסְדֵ֥י יְהוָֽה׃
