- 1. Praise the Lorde, because he is good: for his mercie endureth for euer.
- 2. Let them, which haue bene redeemed of the Lord, shewe how he hath deliuered them from the hand of the oppressour,
- 3. And gathered them out of the lands, from the East and from the West, from the North and from the South.
- 4. When they wandered in the desert and wildernesse out of the waie, and founde no citie to dwell in,
- 5. Both hungrie and thirstie, their soule fainted in them.
- 6. Then they cried vnto the Lorde in their trouble, & he deliuered them from their distresse,
- 7. And led them forth by the right way, that they might goe to a citie of habitation.
- 8. Let them therefore confesse before ye Lorde his louing kindnesse, and his wonderfull woorkes before the sonnes of men.
- 9. For he satisfied the thirstie soule, and filled the hungrie soule with goodnesse.
- 10. They that dwell in darkenesse and in the shadowe of death, being bounde in miserie and yron,
- 11. Because they rebelled against the wordes of the Lorde, and despised the counsell of the most High,
- 12. When he humbled their heart with heauines, then they fell downe and there was no helper.
- 13. Then they cried vnto the Lorde in their trouble, & he deliuered them from their distresse.
- 14. He brought them out of darkenes, and out of the shadowe of death, and brake their bandes asunder.
- 15. Let them therefore cofesse before the Lord his louing kindnesse, and his wonderfull woorkes before the sonnes of men.
- 16. For hee hath broken the gates of brasse, and brast the barres of yron asunder.
- 17. Fooles by reason of their transgression, and because of their iniquities are afflicted.
- 18. Their soule abhorreth al meat, and they are brought to deaths doore.
- 19. Then they crie vnto the Lord in their trouble, and he deliuereth them from their distresse.
- 20. He sendeth his worde and healeth them, and deliuereth them from their graues.
- 21. Let them therefore cofesse before the Lord his louing kindnesse, & his wonderful workes before the sonnes of men,
- 22. And let them offer sacrifices of praise, and declare his workes with reioycing.
- 23. They that goe downe to the sea in ships, and occupie by the great waters,
- 24. They see the woorkes of the Lorde, and his wonders in the deepe.
- 25. For he commaundeth and raiseth the stormie winde, and it lifteth vp the waues thereof.
- 26. They mount vp to the heauen, and descend to ye deepe, so that their soule melteth for trouble.
- 27. They are tossed to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and all their cunning is gone.
- 28. Then they crie vnto the Lord in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresse.
- 29. He turneth the storme to calme, so that the waues thereof are still.
- 30. When they are quieted, they are glad, and hee bringeth them vnto the hauen, where they would be.
- 31. Let them therfore confesse before the Lord his louing kindnesse, and his wonderfull woorkes before the sonnes of men.
- 32. And let them exalt him in the Congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the Elders.
- 33. He turneth the floodes into a wildernesse, and the springs of waters into drinesse,
- 34. And a fruitfull land into barrennes for the wickednes of them that dwell therein.
- 35. Againe hee turneth the wildernesse into pooles of water, and the drie lande into water springs.
- 36. And there he placeth the hungrie, and they builde a citie to dwell in,
- 37. And sowe the fieldes, and plant vineyardes, which bring foorth fruitfull increase.
- 38. For he blesseth them, & they multiplie exceedingly, and he diminisheth not their cattell.
- 39. Againe men are diminished, and brought lowe by oppression, euill and sorowe.
- 40. He powreth cotempt vpon princes, & causeth them to erre in desert places out of the way.
- 41. Yet he raiseth vp the poore out of miserie, and maketh him families like a flocke of sheepe.
- 42. The righteous shall see it, and reioyce, and all iniquitie shall stoppe her mouth.
- 43. Who is wise that hee may obserue these things? for they shall vnderstand the louing kindnesse of the Lord.
