I sank to the foundations of the mountains,(A)
the earth’s gates shut behind me forever!(B)
Then you raised my life(C) from the Pit, Lord my God!(D)
As my life was fading away,(E)
I remembered the Lord,(F)
and my prayer came to you,(G)
to your holy temple.(H)
Those who cherish worthless idols(I)
abandon their faithful love,(J)
but as for me, I will sacrifice(K) to you
with a voice of thanksgiving.(L)
I will fulfill(M) what I have vowed.
Salvation[a] belongs to the Lord.(N)
