1O give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; For his lovingkindness endureth for ever.
1A canticle of a psalm for David himself.
1Give ye thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.
2Let the redeemed of Jehovah sayso, Whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the adversary,
2My heart is ready, O God, my heart is ready: I will sing, and will give praise, with my glory.
2 Let the redeemed of Jehovah say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the oppressor,
3And gathered out of the lands, From the east and from the west, From the north and from the south.
3Arise, my glory; arise, psaltery and harp: I will arise in the morning early.
3 And gathered out of the countries, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the sea.
4 They wandered in the wilderness in a desert way; They found no city of habitation.
4I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: and I will sing unto thee among the nations.
4 They wandered in the wilderness in a desert way, they found no city of habitation;
5Hungry and thirsty, Their soul fainted in them.
5For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth even unto the clouds.
5 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them:
6Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, And he delivered them out of their distresses,
6Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, and thy glory over all the earth:
6 Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, [and] he delivered them out of their distresses,
7He led them also by a straight way, That they might go to a city of habitation.
7That thy beloved may be delivered. Save with thy right hand and hear me.
7 And he led them forth by a right way, that they might go to a city of habitation.
8Oh that men would praise Jehovah for his lovingkindness, And for his wonderful works to the children of men!
8God hath spoken in his holiness. I will rejoice, and I will divide Sichem and I will mete out the vale of tabernacles.
8 Let them give thanks unto Jehovah for his loving-kindness, and for his wondrous works to the children of men;
9For he satisfieth the longing soul, And the hungry soul he filleth with good.
9Galaad is mine: and Manasses is mine and Ephraim the protection of my head. Juda is my king:
9 For he hath satisfied the longing soul and filled the hungry soul with good.
10 Such as sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, Being bound in affliction and iron,
10Moab the pot of my hope. Over Edom I will stretch out my shoe: the aliens are become my friends.
10 Such as inhabit darkness and the shadow of death, bound in affliction and iron,
11Because they rebelled against the words of God, And contemned the counsel of the Most High:
11Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
11 Because they had rebelled against the words ofGod, and had despised the counsel of the Most High; ...
12Therefore he brought down their heart with labor; They fell down, and there was none to help.
12Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off ? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our armies?
12 And he bowed down their heart with labour; they stumbled, and there was none to help:
13Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, And he saved them out of their distresses.
13O grant us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
13 Then they cried unto Jehovah in their trouble, [and] he saved them out of their distresses;
14He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, And brake their bonds in sunder.
14Through God we shall do mightily: and he will bring our enemies to nothing.
14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and broke their bands in sunder.
