“I acried out to the Lord because of my affliction,
bAnd He answered me.
“Out of the belly of Sheol I cried,
And You heard my voice.
Into the heart of the seas,
And the floods surrounded me;
bAll Your billows and Your waves passed over me.
Yet I will look again btoward Your holy temple.’
The deep closed around me;
Weeds were wrapped around my head.
The earth with its bars closed behind me forever;
Yet You have brought up my alife from the pit,
O Lord, my God.
I remembered the Lord;
aAnd my prayer went up to You,
Into Your holy temple.
