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 in irons;
11. Because they rebelled against the words of God, and the counsel of the most High:
12. Therefore he brought down their heart with labor; they fell down, and there was none to help.
13. Then they cried unto 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 their bands asunder.
15. Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
16. For he has broken the gates of bronze, and cut the bars of iron in two.
17. Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted.
18. Their soul abhors all manner of food; and they draw near unto the gates of death.
19. Then they cry unto the LORD 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 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 on great waters;
24. These see the works of the LORD, and his wonders in the deep.
25. For he commands, and raises the stormy wind, who 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.
