For Travellers; eThey wander in the Wilderness in a solitary way: hungry and thirsty, their soul fainting in them. They cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he delivers them out of their distresses. For Captives; fThey sit in darkness, and in the shadow of death; fast bound in affliction and iron. Their prayers find a way out of the prison to God, and God delivers them out of the prison to liberty. For Sick, gBecause of their transgression they are afflicted: their soul abhorreth all manner of meat, and they draw near unto the gates of death. The strength of their prayers recovers the strength of their bodies. For Mariners, hThey reel to and fro, staggering like a drunken man; and are at their wits end. They by their prayers appease the wrath of God, and he appeaseth the wrath of the waves and winds.
