9 כִּֽי־הִשְׂבִּיעַ נֶפֶשׁ שֹׁקֵקָהוְנֶפֶשׁ רְעֵבָה מִלֵּא־טֽוֹב׃	9 For he satisfied the thirsty, filled the hungry with good things.
10 יֹשְׁבֵי חֹשֶׁךְ וְצַלְמָוֶתאֲסִירֵי עֳנִי וּבַרְזֶֽל׃	10 Some lived in darkness and gloom, in prison, bound with chains,
11 כִּֽי־הִמְרוּ אִמְרֵי־אֵלוַעֲצַת עֶלְיוֹן נָאָֽצוּ׃	11 Because they rebelled against God's word, scorned the counsel of the Most High,

33 יָשֵׂם נְהָרוֹת לְמִדְבָּרוּמֹצָאֵי מַיִם לְצִמָּאֽוֹן׃	33 God changed rivers into desert, springs of water into thirsty ground,
34 אֶרֶץ פְּרִי לִמְלֵחָהמֵרָעַת יוֹשְׁבֵי בָֽהּ׃	34 Fruitful land into a salty waste, because of the wickedness of its people.

40 ׆ שֹׁפֵךְ בּוּז עַל־נְדִיבִיםוַיַּתְעֵם בְּתֹהוּ לֹא־דָֽרֶךְ׃	40 But he poured out contempt on princes, made them wander the trackless wastes,
41 וַיְשַׂגֵּב אֶבְיוֹן מֵעוֹנִיוַיָּשֶׂם כַּצֹּאן מִשְׁפָּחֽוֹת׃	41 While the poor were released from their affliction; their families increased like their flocks.
42 יִרְאוּ יְשָׁרִים וְיִשְׂמָחוּוְכׇל־עַוְלָה קָפְצָה פִּֽיהָ׃	42 The upright saw this and rejoiced; all wickedness shut its mouth.
43 מִי־חָכָם וְיִשְׁמׇר־אֵלֶּהוְיִתְבּוֹנְנוּ חַֽסְדֵי יְהֹוָֽה׃	43 Whoever is wise will take note of these things, will ponder the merciful deeds of the LORD.
