1 Alleluia. Confess to the Lord, for he is good, for his mercy is with every generation

2 Let those who have been redeemed by the Lord say so: those whom he redeemed from the hand of the enemy and gathered from the regions

3 from the rising of the sun and its setting, from the north and from the sea

4 They wandered into solitude in a waterless place. They did not find the way of the city to be their dwelling place

5 They were hungry, and they were thirsty. Their soul fainted within them

6 And they cried out to the Lord in tribulation, and he rescued them in their necessity

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

8 Let his mercies confess to the Lord, and let his miracles confess to the sons of men

9 For he has satisfied the empty soul, and he has satisfied the hungry soul with good things

10 those sitting in darkness and in the shadow of death, shackled by extreme poverty and by iron

11 For they exasperated the eloquence of God, and they irritated the deliberation of the Most High

12 And their heart was brought low with hardships. They were weakened, and there was no one to help them

13 And they cried out to the Lord in their tribulation, and he freed them from their distress

14 And he led them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and he broke apart their chains

15 Let his mercies confess to the Lord, and let his miracles confess to the sons of men

16 For he has crushed the gates of brass and broken the iron bars

17 He has taken them up, from the way of their iniquity. For they were brought low, because of their injustices

18 Their soul abhorred all food, and they drew near even to the gates of death

19 And they cried out to the Lord in their tribulation, and he delivered them in their necessity

20 He sent his word, and he healed them, and he rescued them from their utter destruction

21 Let his mercies confess to the Lord, and let his miracles confess to the sons of men

22 And let them offer sacrifice with the sacrifice of praise, and let them announce his works in exultation

23 Those who descend to the sea in ships, making their livelihood in the great waters

24 these have seen the works of the Lord and his wonders in the deep

25 He spoke: and a windstorm stood up, and its waves were exalted

26 They ascend even to the heavens, and they descend even to the abyss. Their soul will waste away in distress

27 They were troubled, and they moved like a drunkard, and all their wisdom was consumed

28 And they cried out to the Lord in their tribulation, and he led them out of their distress

29 And he replaced the storm with a breeze, and its waves were stilled

30 And they were joyful that it was stilled, and he led them into the haven that they desired

31 Let his mercies confess to the Lord, and let his miracles confess to the sons of men

32 And let them exalt him in the Church of the people, and praise him in the chair of the elders

33 He has placed rivers in the desert and sources of water in dry places

34 a fruit-bearing land in the midst of brine, before the malice of those who dwell in it

35 He has placed a desert in the midst of pools of waters, and a land without water in the midst of sources of water

36 And he has gathered the hungry together there, and they constructed a city of habitation

37 And they sowed fields and planted vineyards, and they produced the fruit of nativity

38 And he blessed them, and they were multiplied exceedingly. And he did not diminish their beasts of burden

39 And they became few, and they were afflicted by the tribulation of evils and of sorrow

40 Contempt was poured over their leaders, and he caused them to wander in an impassable place, and not on the way

41 And he helped the poor out of destitution, and he stationed families like sheep

42 The upright will see, and they will rejoice. And every iniquity will block its mouth

43 Who is wise and will keep these things? And who will understand the mercies of the Lord
