4 They wandered in the wilderness, in a waste of a way, An inhabited city they found not. 5 Hungry and thirsty, Their soul languished within them, 6 And they cried to Jehovah in their distress, From their troubles He delivered them, 7 And He led them by a straight way, To go to an inhabited city. 8 Let them give thanks to Jehovah [for] His loving-kindness, And His wonders to the sons of men. 9 For He satisfies the longing soul, And the hungry soul He fills with good. 10 Those who sat in darkness and in deepest gloom, Bound in affliction and iron, 11 Because they rebelled against the words of God, And the counsel of the Most High they rejected. 12 And He brought down their heart with sorrow, They stumbled, and helper there was none. 13 And they cried to Jehovah in their distress, From their troubles He saved them. 14 He brought them out from darkness and deepest gloom, And broke their bonds [asunder]. 15 Let them give thanks to Jehovah [for] His loving-kindness, And His wonders to the sons of men. 16 For He broke the doors of brass, And the bars of iron He hewed in pieces. 17 Foolish men, because of the course of their transgression, And because of their iniquities, brought on themselves affliction. 18 All food their soul loathed, And they drew near to the gates of death. 19 And they cried to Jehovah in their distress, From their troubles He saved them. 20 He sent His word and healed them, And rescued them from their graves. 21 Let them give thanks to Jehovah [for] His loving-kindness And His wonders to the sons of men. 22 And let them offer sacrifices of thanksgiving, And tell His works with joyful joy. 23 They who go down to the sea in ships, Who do business on the great waters, 24 They see the works of Jehovah, And His wonders in the foaming deep. 25 And He spoke and raised a stormy wind, Which rolled high the waves thereof. 26 They went up to the sky, they went down to the depths, Their soul melted in trouble. 27 They went round and round and staggered like one drunk, And all their wisdom forsook them [was swallowed up]. 28 And they cried to Jehovah in their distress, From their trouble He brought them out. 29 He stilled the storm into a light air, And hushed were their waves. 30 And they were glad because these were quieted, And He brought them to the haven of their desire. 31 Let them give thanks to Jehovah [for] His loving-kindness And His wonders to the sons of men. 32 And let them exalt Him in the assembly of the people, And praise Him in the session of the elders.
