10 There were those who adwelt in darkness and in the shadow of death,

bPrisoners in 1misery and 2chains,

11 Because they had arebelled against the words of God

And bspurned the ccounsel of the Most High.

12 Therefore He humbled their heart with labor;

They stumbled and there was anone to help.

13 Then they acried out to the Lord in their trouble;

He saved them out of their distresses.

14 He abrought them out of darkness and the shadow of death

And bbroke their bands apart.

15 aLet them give thanks to the Lord for His lovingkindness,

And for His 1wonders to the sons of men!

16 For He has ashattered gates of bronze

And cut bars of iron asunder.

17 Fools, because of 1their rebellious way,

And abecause of their iniquities, were afflicted.

18 Their asoul abhorred all kinds of food,

And they bdrew near to the cgates of death.

19 Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble;

He saved them out of their distresses.

20 He asent His word and bhealed them,

And cdelivered them from their 1destructions.

21 aLet them give thanks to the Lord for His lovingkindness,

And for His 1wonders to the sons of men!

22 Let them also offer asacrifices of thanksgiving,

And btell of His works with joyful singing.
