107 Hallelujah!

“Give thanks to the Eternal! – he is good,

his kindness never fails!”

2 Be this the song of the redeemed,

redeemed by the Eternal from their foes,

3 gathered from lands afar,

from east and west, from north and south.

4 Some wandered in the lonely wilderness,

they could not find a settled town;

5 their soul was faint

with hunger and with thirst.

6 They cried to the Eternal in their need,

to save them from their evil plight,

7 and straight he led them

to a settled town.

8 Let them thank the Eternal for his kindness,

and for the wonders that he does for men;

9 he satisfies their longing thirst,

and fills them in their hunger.

10 Some lay in darkness and in gloom,

prisoners in chains and misery,

11 because they had rebelled at God’s commands

and scorned what the Most High enjoined;

12 hard labour crushed their spirit,

and wearied out, forlorn,

13 they cried to the Eternal in their need,

to save them from their evil plight;

14 he took them from the darkness and the gloom,

and snapped their chains.

15 Let them thank the Eternal for his kindness,

and for the wonders that he does for men;

16 he breaks the gates of bronze,

and shatters iron bars.

17 Some, weakened by their sinful ways,

were sick and suffering by evildoing;

18 they had a loathing for all food,

they were on the verge of death;

19 they cried to the Eternal in their need,

to save them from their evil plight;

20 he sent his word to heal them

and preserve their life.

21 Let them thank the Eternal for his kindness,

and for the wonders that he does for men;

22 let them offer the sacrifice of thanksgiving,

and joyfully recount what he has done.

23 Some crossed the sea in ships,

trading in great waters;

24 they saw what the Eternal does,

his marvels in the deep.

25 When the wind rose at his bidding,

and the waves tossed with the storm,

26 they soared to heaven, sank to the depth,

their courage melting;

27 they reeled and staggered like a drunken man,

and were at their wit’s end.

28 They cried to the Eternal in their need,

to save them from their evil plight;

29 he stilled the storm to a whisper,

till the waves were hushed.

30 Glad were they for the calm,

and then he brought them to their longed-for haven.

31 Let them thank the Eternal for his kindness,

and for the wonders that he does for men;

32 let them extol him, when the people meet,

and praise him in the council of the sheikhs.

33 He turns streams into a desert,

and fountains into dry land;

34 he turns an oasis into a salt waste,

to punish people for their sins.

35 He turns a desert into pools of water,

and dry land into fountains,

36 where he settles famished folk,

to build a town to settle in,

37 sowing fields and planting vineyards,

gathering in their harvest;

38 by his blessing they increase,

and their herds never diminish.

40 He pours contempt on lords,

and sets them in a pathless waste astray,

39 till they grow few and faint

under the weight of misery.

41 But he lifts poor men from their woes,

and makes their household like a fruitful flock.

42 Good men rejoice to see this,

and wrongdoers are silenced.

43 Let any wise man ponder this,

and lay to heart how kind the Eternal is.
