Let the redeemed of the Lord tell it

(Matthew 8:23-27; Mark 4:35-41; Luke 8:22-25)
1
Give thanks to YHWH, || For [He is] good, for His kindness [is] for all time”:
2
Let the redeemed of YHWH say [so], || Whom He redeemed from the hand of an adversary.
3
And has gathered them from the lands, || From east and from west, || From north, and from the sea.
4
They wandered in a wilderness, in a desert by the way, || They have not found a city of habitation.
5
Hungryindeedthirsty, || Their soul becomes feeble in them,
6
And they cry to YHWH in their adversity, || He delivers them from their distress,
7
And causes them to tread in a right way, || To go to a city of habitation.
8
They confess to YHWH His kindness, || And His wonders to the sons of men.
9
For He has satisfied a longing soul, || And has filled a hungry soul [with] goodness.
10
Inhabitants of dark places and death-shade, || Prisoners of affliction and of iron,
11
Because they changed the saying of God, || And despised the counsel of the Most High.
12
And He humbles their heart with labor, || They have been feeble, and there is no helper.
13
And they cry to YHWH in their adversity, || He saves them from their distresses.
14
He brings them out from the dark place, || And death-shade, || And He draws away their bands.
15
They confess to YHWH His kindness, || And His wonders to the sons of men.
16
For He has broken doors of bronze, || And He has cut bars of iron.
17
Fools, by means of their transgression, || And by their iniquities, afflict themselves.
18
Their soul detests all food, || And they come near to the gates of death,
19
And cry to YHWH in their adversity, || He saves them from their distresses,
20
He sends His word and heals them, || And delivers [them] from their destructions.
21
They confess to YHWH His kindness, || And His wonders to the sons of men,
22
And they sacrifice sacrifices of thanksgiving, || And recount His works with singing.
23
Those going down [to] the sea in ships, || Doing business in many waters,
24
They have seen the works of YHWH, || And His wonders in the deep.
25
And He commands, and appoints a storm, || And it lifts up its billows,
26
They go up [to] the heavens, they go down [to] the depths, || Their soul is melted in evil.
27
They reel to and fro, and move as a drunkard, || And all their wisdom is swallowed up.
28
And they cry to YHWH in their adversity, || And He brings them out from their distresses.
29
He calms a whirlwind, || And their billows are hushed.
30
And they rejoice because they are quiet, || And He leads them to the haven of their desire.
31
They confess to YHWH His kindness, || And His wonders to the sons of men,
32
And they exalt Him in [the] assembly of [the] people, || And praise Him in [the] seat of [the] elderly.
33
He makes rivers become a wilderness, || And fountains of waters become dry land.
34
A fruitful land becomes a barren place, || For the wickedness of its inhabitants.
35
He makes a wilderness become a pool of water, || And a dry land become fountains of waters.
36
And He causes the hungry to dwell there, || And they prepare a city of habitation.
37
And they sow fields, and plant vineyards, || And they make fruits of increase.
38
And He blesses them, and they multiply exceedingly, || And He does not diminish their livestock.
39
And they are diminished, and bow down, || By restraint, evil, and sorrow.
40
He is pouring contempt on nobles, || And causes them to wander in vacancy—no way.
41
And sets the needy on high from affliction, || And places families as a flock.
42
The upright see and rejoice, || And all perversity has shut her mouth.
43
Who [is] wise, and observes these? They understand the kind acts of YHWH!

Let the redeemed of the Lord tell it

(Matthew 8:23-27; Mark 4:35-41; Luke 8:22-25)
1
Give thanks to the LORD,(a) for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
2
Let the redeemed by the LORD say so, whom he has redeemed from the hand of the adversary,
3
and gathered 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 desert way. They found no city to live in.
5
Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.
6
Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses.
7
He led them also by a straight way, that they might go to a city to live in.
8
Let them praise the LORD for his loving kindness, for his wonderful deeds to the children of men!
9
For he satisfies the longing soul. He fills the hungry soul with good.
10
Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron,
11
because they rebelled against the words of God,(b) and condemned the counsel of the Most High.
12
Therefore he brought down their heart with labor. They fell down, and there was no one to help.
13
Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.
14
He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and broke away their chains.
15
Let them praise the LORD for his loving kindness, for his wonderful deeds to the children of men!
16
For he has broken the gates of bronze, and cut through bars of iron.
17
Fools are afflicted because of their disobedience, and because of their iniquities.
18
Their soul abhors all kinds of food. They draw near to the gates of death.
19
Then they cry to the LORD in their trouble, and he saves them out of their distresses.
20
He sends his word, and heals them, and delivers them from their graves.
21
Let them praise the LORD for his loving kindness, for his wonderful deeds to the children of men!
22
Let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his deeds with singing.
23
Those who go down to the sea in ships, who do business in great waters,
24
these see the LORD’s deeds, and his wonders in the deep.
25
For he commands, and raises the stormy wind, which lifts up its waves.
26
They mount up to the sky; they go down again to the depths. Their soul melts away because of trouble.
27
They reel back and forth, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits’ end.
28
Then they cry to the LORD in their trouble, and he brings them out of their distress.
29
He makes the storm a calm, so that its waves are still.
30
Then they are glad because it is calm, so he brings them to their desired haven.
31
Let them praise the LORD for his loving kindness, for his wonderful deeds for the children of men!
32
Let them exalt him also in the assembly of the people, and praise him in the seat of the elders.
33
He turns rivers into a desert, water springs into a thirsty ground,
34
and a fruitful land into a salt waste, for the wickedness of those who dwell in it.
35
He turns a desert into a pool of water, and a dry land into water springs.
36
There he makes the hungry live, that they may prepare a city to live in,
37
sow fields, plant vineyards, and reap the fruits of increase.
38
He blesses them also, so that they are multiplied greatly. He doesn’t allow their livestock to decrease.
39
Again, they are diminished and bowed down through oppression, trouble, and sorrow.
40
He pours contempt on princes, and causes them to wander in a trackless waste.
41
Yet he lifts the needy out of their affliction, and increases their families like a flock.
42
The upright will see it, and be glad. All the wicked will shut their mouths.
43
Whoever is wise will pay attention to these things. They will consider the loving kindnesses of the LORD.
