[1]הֹד֣וּ לַיהוָ֣ה כִּי־טֹ֑וב כִּ֖י לְעֹולָ֣ם חַסְדֹּֽו׃ [1]Praise the Lord, because he is good: for his mercy endureth forever.
[2]יֹ֭אמְרוּ גְּאוּלֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה אֲשֶׁ֥ר גְּ֝אָלָ֗ם מִיַּד־צָֽר׃ [2]Let them, which have been redeemed of the Lord, show how he hath delivered them from the hand of the oppressor,
[3]וּֽמֵאֲרָצֹ֗ות קִ֫בְּצָ֥ם מִמִּזְרָ֥ח וּמִֽמַּעֲרָ֑ב מִצָּפֹ֥ון וּמִיָּֽם׃ [3]And gathered them out of the lands, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south.
[4]תָּע֣וּ בַ֭מִּדְבָּר בִּישִׁימֹ֣ון דָּ֑רֶךְ עִ֥יר מֹ֝ושָׁ֗ב לֹ֣א מָצָֽאוּ׃ [4]When they wandered in the desert and wilderness out of the way, and found no city to dwell in,
[5]רְעֵבִ֥ים גַּם־צְמֵאִ֑ים נַ֝פְשָׁ֗ם בָּהֶ֥ם תִּתְעַטָּֽף׃ [5]Both hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.
[6]וַיִּצְעֲק֣וּ אֶל־יְ֭הוָה בַּצַּ֣ר לָהֶ֑ם מִ֝מְּצֽוּקֹותֵיהֶ֗ם יַצִּילֵֽם׃ [6]Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress,
[7]וַ֭יַּֽדְרִיכֵם בְּדֶ֣רֶךְ יְשָׁרָ֑ה לָ֝לֶ֗כֶת אֶל־עִ֥יר מֹושָֽׁב׃ [7]And led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.
[8]יֹוד֣וּ לַיהוָ֣ה חַסְדֹּ֑ו וְ֝נִפְלְאֹותָ֗יו לִבְנֵ֥י אָדָֽם׃ [8]Let them therefore confess before the Lord his loving kindness, and his wonderful works before the sons of men.
[9]כִּי־הִ֭שְׂבִּיעַ נֶ֣פֶשׁ שֹׁקֵקָ֑ה וְנֶ֥פֶשׁ רְ֝עֵבָה מִלֵּא־טֹֽוב׃ [9]For he satisfied the thirsty soul, and filled the hungry soul with goodness.
[10]יֹ֭שְׁבֵי חֹ֣שֶׁךְ וְצַלְמָ֑וֶת אֲסִירֵ֖י עֳנִ֣י וּבַרְזֶֽל׃ [10]They that dwell in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in misery and iron,
[11]כִּֽי־הִמְר֥וּ אִמְרֵי־אֵ֑ל וַעֲצַ֖ת עֶלְיֹ֣ון נָאָֽצוּ׃ [11]Because they rebelled against the words of the Lord, and despised the counsel of the Most High,
[12]וַיַּכְנַ֣ע בֶּעָמָ֣ל לִבָּ֑ם כָּ֝שְׁל֗וּ וְאֵ֣ין עֹזֵֽר׃ [12]When he humbled their heart with heaviness, then they fell down and there was no helper.
[13]וַיִּזְעֲק֣וּ אֶל־יְ֭הוָה בַּצַּ֣ר לָהֶ֑ם מִ֝מְּצֻֽקֹותֵיהֶ֗ם יֹושִׁיעֵֽם׃ [13]Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.
[14]יֹֽ֭וצִיאֵם מֵחֹ֣שֶׁךְ וְצַלְמָ֑וֶת וּמֹוסְרֹ֖ותֵיהֶ֣ם יְנַתֵּֽק׃ [14]He brought them out of darkness, and out of the shadow of death, and brake their bands asunder.
[15]יֹוד֣וּ לַיהוָ֣ה חַסְדֹּ֑ו וְ֝נִפְלְאֹותָ֗יו לִבְנֵ֥י אָדָֽם׃ [15]Let them therefore confess before the Lord his loving kindness, and his wonderful works before the sons of men.
[16]כִּֽישִׁ֭־בַּר דַּלְתֹ֣ות נְחֹ֑שֶׁת וּבְרִיחֵ֖י בַרְזֶ֣ל גִּדֵּֽעַ׃ [16]For he hath broken the gates of brass, and burst the bars of iron asunder.
[17]אֱ֭וִלִים מִדֶּ֣רֶךְ פִּשְׁעָ֑ם וּֽ֝מֵעֲוֹֽנֹתֵיהֶ֗ם יִתְעַנּֽוּ׃ [17]Fools by reason of their transgression, and because of their iniquities are afflicted.
[18]כָּל־אֹ֭כֶל תְּתַעֵ֣ב נַפְשָׁ֑ם וַ֝יַּגִּ֗יעוּ עַד־שַׁ֥עֲרֵי מָֽוֶת׃ [18]Their soul abhorreth all meat, and they are brought to death's door.
[19]וַיִּזְעֲק֣וּ אֶל־יְ֭הוָה בַּצַּ֣ר לָהֶ֑ם מִ֝מְּצֻֽקֹותֵיהֶ֗ם יֹושִׁיעֵֽם׃ [19]Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he delivereth them from their distress.
[20]יִשְׁלַ֣ח דְּ֭בָרֹו וְיִרְפָּאֵ֑ם וִֽ֝ימַלֵּ֗ט מִשְּׁחִיתֹותָֽם׃  [20]He sendeth his word and healeth them, and delivereth them from their graves.
[21]יֹוד֣וּ לַיהוָ֣ה חַסְדֹּ֑ו וְ֝נִפְלְאֹותָ֗יו לִבְנֵ֥י אָדָֽם׃  [21]Let them therefore confess before the Lord his loving kindness, and his wonderful works before the sons of men,
[22]וְ֭יִזְבְּחוּ זִבְחֵ֣י תֹודָ֑ה וִֽיסַפְּר֖וּ מַעֲשָׂ֣יו בְּרִנָּֽה׃  [22]And let them offer sacrifices of praise, and declare his works with rejoicing.
[23]יֹורְדֵ֣י הַ֭יָּם בָּאֳנִיֹּ֑ות עֹשֵׂ֥י מְ֝לָאכָ֗ה בְּמַ֣יִם רַבִּֽים׃  [23]They that go down to the sea in ships, and occupy by the great waters,
[24]הֵ֣מָּה רָ֭אוּ מַעֲשֵׂ֣י יְהוָ֑ה וְ֝נִפְלְאֹותָ֗יו בִּמְצוּלָֽה׃  [24]They see the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep.
[25]וַיֹּ֗אמֶר וַֽ֭יַּעֲמֵד ר֣וּחַ סְעָרָ֑ה וַתְּרֹומֵ֥ם גַּלָּֽיו׃  [25]For he commandeth and raiseth the stormy wind, and it lifteth up the waves thereof.
[26]יַעֲל֣וּ מַיִם יֵרְד֣וּ תְהֹומֹ֑ות נַ֝פְשָׁ֗ם בְּרָעָ֥ה תִתְמֹוגָֽג׃ [26]They mount up to the heaven, and descend to the deep, so that their soul melteth for trouble.
[27]יָחֹ֣וגּוּ וְ֭יָנוּעוּ כַּשִּׁכֹּ֑ור וְכָל־חָ֝כְמָתָ֗ם תִּתְבַּלָּֽע׃ [27]They are tossed to and from, and stagger like a drunken man, and all their cunning is gone.
[28]וַיִּצְעֲק֣וּ אֶל־יְ֭הוָה בַּצַּ֣ר לָהֶ֑ם וּֽ֝מִמְּצֽוּקֹתֵיהֶ֗ם יֹוצִיאֵֽם׃ [28]Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble , and he bringeth them out of their distress.
[29]יָקֵ֣ם סְ֭עָרָה לִדְמָמָ֑ה וַ֝יֶּחֱשׁ֗וּ גַּלֵּיהֶֽם׃ [29]He turneth the storm to calm, so that the waves thereof are still.
[30]וַיִּשְׂמְח֥וּ כִֽי־יִשְׁתֹּ֑קוּ וַ֝יַּנְחֵ֗ם אֶל־מְחֹ֥וז חֶפְצָֽם׃ [30]When they are quieted, they are glad, and he bringeth them unto the haven, where they would be.
[31]יֹוד֣וּ לַיהוָ֣ה חַסְדֹּ֑ו וְ֝נִפְלְאֹותָ֗יו לִבְנֵ֥י אָדָֽם׃ [31]Let them therefore confess before the Lord his loving kindness, and his wonderful works before the sons of men.
[32]וִֽ֭ירֹמְמוּהוּ בִּקְהַל־עָ֑ם וּבְמֹושַׁ֖ב זְקֵנִ֣ים יְהַלְלֽוּהוּ׃ [32]And let them exalt him in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the elders.
[33]יָשֵׂ֣ם נְהָרֹ֣ות לְמִדְבָּ֑ר וּמֹצָ֥אֵי מַ֝֗יִם לְצִמָּאֹֽון׃ [33]He turneth the floods into a wilderness, and the springs of waters into dryness,
[34]אֶ֣רֶץ פְּ֭רִי לִמְלֵחָ֑ה מֵ֝רָעַ֗ת יֹ֣שְׁבֵי בָֽהּ׃ [34]And a fruitful land into barrenness for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.
[35]יָשֵׂ֣ם מִ֭דְבָּר לַֽאֲגַם־מַ֑יִם וְאֶ֥רֶץ צִ֝יָּ֗ה לְמֹצָ֥אֵי מָֽיִם׃ [35]Again he turneth the wilderness into pools of water, and the dry land into water springs.
[36]וַיֹּ֣ושֶׁב שָׁ֣ם רְעֵבִ֑ים וַ֝יְכֹונְנ֗וּ עִ֣יר מֹושָֽׁב׃ [36]And there he placeth the hungry, and they build a city to dwell in,
[37]וַיִּזְרְע֣וּ דֹות וַיִּטְּע֣וּ כְרָמִ֑ים וַ֝יַּעֲשׂ֗וּ פְּרִ֣י תְבֽוּאָה׃ [37]And sow the fields, and plant vineyards, which bring forth fruitful increase.
[38]וַיְבָרֲכֵ֣ם וַיִּרְבּ֣וּ מְאֹ֑ד וּ֝בְהֶמְתָּ֗ם לֹ֣א יַמְעִֽיט׃ [38]For he blesseth them, and they multiply exceedingly, and he diminisheth not their cattle.
[39]וַיִּמְעֲט֥וּ וַיָּשֹׁ֑חוּ מֵעֹ֖צֶר רָעָ֣ה וְיָגֹֽון׃  [39]Again men are diminished, and brought low by oppression, evil and sorrow.
[40]שֹׁפֵ֣ךְ בּ֭וּז עַל־נְדִיבִ֑ים וַ֝יַּתְעֵ֗ם בְּתֹ֣הוּ לֹא־דָֽרֶךְ׃ [40]He poureth contempt upon princes, and causeth them to err in desert places out of the way.
[41]וַיְשַׂגֵּ֣ב אֶבְיֹ֣ון מֵעֹ֑ונִי וַיָּ֥שֶׂם כַּ֝צֹּ֗אן מִשְׁפָּחֹֽות׃ [41]Yet he raiseth up the poor out of misery, and maketh him families like a flock of sheep.
[42]יִרְא֣וּ יְשָׁרִ֣ים וְיִשְׂמָ֑חוּ וְכָל־עַ֝וְלָ֗ה קָ֣פְצָה פִּֽיהָ׃ [42]The righteous shall see it, and rejoice, and all iniquity shall stop her mouth.
[43]מִי־חָכָ֥ם וְיִשְׁמָר־אֵ֑לֶּה וְ֝יִתְבֹּֽונְנ֗וּ חַֽסְדֵ֥י יְהוָֽה׃ [43]Who is wise that he may observe these things? For they shall understand the loving kindness of the Lord.
