1
Oh, a give thanks to the LORD, for He is good!
For His 1 mercy endures forever.
2
Let the redeemed of the LORD say so,
Whom He has redeemed from the hand of the enemy,
3
And b gathered out of the lands,
From the east and from the west,
From the north and from the south.
4
They wandered in c the wilderness in a desolate way;
They found no city to dwell in.
5
Hungry and thirsty,
Their soul fainted in them.
6
d Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble,
And He delivered them out of their distresses.
7
And He led them forth by the e right way,
That they might go to a city for a dwelling place.
8
f Oh, that men would give thanks to the LORD for His goodness,
And for His wonderful works to the children of men!
9
For g He satisfies the longing soul,
And fills the hungry soul with goodness.
