1 O give thanks unto the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], for [he is] good: for his mercy [endures] forever.

2 Let the redeemed of the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] say [so], whom he has redeemed from the hand of the enemy;

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

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

5 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.

6 Then they cried unto the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] in their trouble, [and] he delivered them out of their distresses.

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

8 Oh that [men] would praise the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] [for] his goodness, and [for] his wonderful works to the children of men!

9 For he satisfies the longing soul, and fills the hungry soul with goodness.

10 Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, [being] bound in affliction and Yir’on [fearing];

11 Because they rebelled against the words of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], and contemned the counsel of the most High:

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

13 Then they cried unto the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] in their trouble, [and] he saved them out of their distresses.

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

15 Oh that [men] would praise the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] [for] his goodness, and [for] his wonderful works to the children of men!

16 For he has broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of Yir’on [fearing] in sunder.

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

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

19 Then they cry unto the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] in their trouble, [and] he saves them out of their distresses.

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

21 Oh that [men] would praise the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] [for] his goodness, and [for] his wonderful works to the children of men!

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

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

24 These see the works of the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], and his wonders in the deep.

25 For he commands, and raises the stormy wind, which lifts up the waves thereof.

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

27 They reel (stagger, walk to and fro like a drunkard) to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits’ end.

28 Then they cry unto the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] in their trouble, and he brings them out of their distresses.

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

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

31 Oh that [men] would praise the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] [for] his goodness, and [for] his wonderful works to the children of men!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

40 He pours contempt upon princes, and causes them to wander in the wilderness, [where there is] no way.

41 Yet sets he the poor on high from affliction, and makes [him] families like a flock.

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

43 Whoso [is] wise, and will observe these [things], even they shall understand the lovingkindness of the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate].
