⁵ “^(A)Water encompassed me to the ^[a]point of death.
The great ^(B)deep ^[b]engulfed me,
Weeds were wrapped around my head.
⁶ “I ^(C)descended to the roots of the mountains.
The earth with its ^(D)bars was around me forever,
But You have ^(E)brought up my life from ^[c]the pit, O Lord my God.
⁷ “While ^[d]I was ^(F)fainting away,
I ^(G)remembered the Lord,
And my ^(H)prayer came to You,
Into ^(I)Your holy temple.
