15 Let them give thanks to the Lord for his faithful love. Let them give thanks for the miracles he does for his people.
16 He breaks down gates that are made of bronze. He cuts through bars that are made of iron.
17 Others were foolish. They suffered because of their sins. They suffered because they wouldn't obey the Lord.
18 They refused to eat anything. They came close to passing through the gates of death.
19 Then they cried out to the Lord because of their problems. And he saved them from their troubles.
20 He gave his command and healed them. He saved them from the grave.
21 Let them give thanks to the Lord for his faithful love. Let them give thanks for the miracles he does for his people.
