and the flood surrounded me;
(E)all your waves and your billows
passed over me.
4 (F)Then I said, ‘I am driven away
from your sight;
(G)yet I shall again look
upon your holy temple.’

6 at the roots of the mountains.

whose bars closed upon me forever;
yet you brought up my life from the pit,
O Lord my God.
