1 Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever! (Ps 100:5; Ps 105:1) 2 Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he has redeemed from trouble^[1] (Ps 106:10; Isa 62:12; Isa 63:4) 3 and gathered in from the lands, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south. (De 30:3; Ps 106:47; Isa 11:12; Isa 43:5; Isa 56:8; Jer 29:14; Jer 31:8; Jer 31:10; Eze 20:34; Eze 20:41; Eze 39:27)

4 Some wandered in desert wastes, finding no way to a city to dwell in; (De 32:10; Ps 107:36; Ps 107:40) 5 hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted within them. (Ps 77:3) 6 Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress. (Ps 106:44; Ps 107:13; Ps 107:19; Ps 107:28)

Job 10:21Job 36:8Ps 107:14Isa 42:7Isa 49:9Mic 7:8Lu 1:79

11 for they had rebelled against the words of God, and spurned the counsel of the Most High. (De 31:20; Ps 78:40; Ps 106:7; Ps 106:33; Ps 106:43; Pr 1:30; Pr 5:12; Pr 15:5; Lu 7:30)

12 So he bowed their hearts down with hard labor; they fell down, with none to help. (Ps 22:11) 13 Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress. (Ps 107:6; Ps 107:19; Ps 107:28) 14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and burst their bonds apart.

(Ps 107:8; Ps 107:21; Ps 107:31) 16 For he shatters the doors of bronze and cuts in two the bars of iron. (Isa 45:2) 17 Some were fools through their sinful ways, and because of their iniquities suffered affliction; (Pr 1:7; Pr 14:9) 18 they loathed any kind of food, and they drew near to the gates of death.

23 Some went down to the sea in ships, doing business on the great waters; (Isa 42:10) 24 they saw the deeds of the Lord, his wondrous works in the deep. 25 For he commanded and raised the stormy wind, which lifted up the waves of the sea. (Ps 105:31; Ps 105:34; Ps 148:8; Jon 1:4)

26 They mounted up to heaven; they went down to the depths; their courage melted away in their evil plight; (Ps 22:14; Ps 119:28) 27 they reeled and staggered like drunken men and were at their wits’ end.^[2] (Job 12:25; Isa 19:3; Isa 24:20; Isa 29:9)

(Ps 65:7) 30 Then they were glad that the waters^[3] were quiet, and he brought them to their desired haven. 31 Let them thank the Lord for his steadfast love, for his wondrous works to the children of man! (Ps 107:8; Ps 107:15; Ps 107:21) 32 Let them extol him in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the elders. (Ps 22:22; Ps 22:25; Ps 99:5) 33 He turns rivers into a desert, springs of water into thirsty ground, (Isa 42:15; Isa 50:2) 34 a fruitful land into a salty waste, because of the evil of its inhabitants.

36 And there he lets the hungry dwell, and they establish a city to live in; (Ps 107:4; Ps 107:7) 37 they sow fields and plant vineyards and get a fruitful yield. 38 By his blessing they multiply greatly, and he does not let their livestock diminish. (Ge 12:2; Ge 17:20; Ex 1:7) 39 When they are diminished and brought low through oppression, evil, and sorrow, 40 he pours contempt on princes and makes them wander in trackless wastes; (De 32:10; Job 12:21; Job 12:24) 41 but he raises up the needy out of affliction and makes their families like flocks. (1Sa 2:8; Job 21:11; Ps 113:7) 42 The upright see it and are glad, and all wickedness shuts its mouth. (Job 22:19; Ps 63:11) 43 Whoever is wise, let him attend to these things; let them consider the steadfast love of the Lord. (Ps 64:9; Jer 9:12; Ho 14:9)

称谢上帝的美善

1 你们要称谢耶和华，因为祂是美善的；祂的慈爱永远长存。 2-3 耶和华救赎的人，就是祂从敌人手中救赎出来、从东西南北招聚的人，都要称谢祂。 4 他们在旷野中飘泊，居无定所， 5 又饥又渴，陷入绝境。 6 他们在危难中呼求耶和华，祂就拯救他们脱离困境， 7 带领他们走直路，到可居住的城邑。 8 他们当称谢耶和华的慈爱，称谢祂为世人所行的奇事。 9 因为祂满足干渴的人，以美食喂饱饥饿的人。 10 有些人坐在黑暗里，在死亡的阴影下，被铁链捆绑，痛苦不堪。 11 因为他们违背上帝的话，藐视至高者的旨意， 12 所以上帝用苦役使他们顺服，他们跌倒也无人扶助。 13 于是，他们在患难中呼求耶和华，耶和华就拯救他们脱离困境。 14 祂带领他们脱离黑暗和死亡的阴影，断开他们的锁链。 15 他们当称谢耶和华的慈爱，称谢祂为世人所行的奇事。 16 因为祂打碎了铜门，砍断了铁闩。 17 有些人愚顽，因自己的悖逆和罪恶而受苦， 18 食欲全消，几近死亡。 19 于是，他们在患难中呼求耶和华，耶和华便拯救他们脱离困境。 20 祂一发令，就医治了他们，救他们脱离死亡。 21 他们当称谢耶和华的慈爱，称谢祂为世人所行的奇事。 22 他们当向祂献上感恩祭，欢然歌颂祂的作为。 23 有些人乘船在汪洋大海上经商， 24 他们看见了耶和华的作为，看见了祂在深海所行的奇事。 25 祂一声令下，狂风大作，巨浪滔天。 26 他们的船只忽而被抛向半空，忽而落入深渊，他们吓得面无人色， 27 东倒西歪，如同醉汉，束手无策。 28 于是，他们在患难中呼求耶和华，耶和华便拯救他们脱离困境。 29 祂使狂风止息，海浪平静。 30 他们因风平浪静而欢喜，祂带领他们到所向往的港湾。 31 他们当称谢耶和华的慈爱，称谢祂为世人所行的奇事。 32 他们当在众人面前尊崇祂，在众首领面前赞美祂。 33 祂使江河变成荒漠，水泉变成干地， 34 叫沃土变成荒凉的盐碱地，因为那里的居民邪恶。 35 祂叫荒漠水塘遍布，使旱地甘泉涌流。 36 祂使饥饿的人住在那里，建造可安居的城邑， 37 耕种田地，栽植葡萄园，收成丰硕。 38 祂赐福给他们，使他们人丁兴旺，牲口有增无减。 39 后来他们在压迫、患难和痛苦的煎熬下人口减少，地位卑下。 40 祂使贵族蒙羞受辱，漂流在荒芜之地。 41 但祂搭救贫苦的人脱离苦难，使他们家族兴旺，多如羊群。 42 正直人看见就欢喜，邪恶人都哑口无言。 43 有智慧的人都当留心这些事，思想耶和华的慈爱。
