^7 (A)He has walled me about so that ^(B)I cannot escape;
    he has made my chains heavy;

²⁶ He will ^(A)raise a signal for nations far away,
    and ^(B)whistle for them ^(C)from the ends of the earth;
and behold, quickly, speedily they come!
^27 (D)None is weary, none stumbles,
    none slumbers or sleeps,
not a waistband is loose,
    not a sandal strap broken;
^28 (E)their arrows are sharp,
    all their bows bent,
their horses' hoofs seem like flint,
    and their wheels ^(F)like the whirlwind.
²⁹ Their roaring is like a lion,
    like young lions they roar;
they growl and ^(G)seize their prey;
    they carry it off, and none can rescue.
³⁰ They will growl over it on that day,
    like the growling of the sea.
And if one looks to the land,
    behold, ^(H)darkness and distress;
and the light is darkened by its clouds.

^10 (A)Some sat in darkness and in ^(B)the shadow of death,
    prisoners in ^(C)affliction and in irons,
¹¹ for they ^(D)had rebelled against the words of God,
    and ^(E)spurned the counsel of the Most High.
¹² So he bowed their hearts down with hard labor;
    they fell down, ^(F)with none to help.
^13 (G)Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble,
    and he delivered them from their distress.
¹⁴ He brought them out of ^(H)darkness and the shadow of death,
    and ^(I)burst their bonds apart.
