    your foundations^(E) with lapis lazuli.^(F)

⁹ Awake, awake,^(A) arm^(B) of the Lord,
    clothe yourself with strength!^(C)

    who pierced that monster^(F) through?

    the waters of the great deep,^(H)
who made a road in the depths of the sea^(I)
    so that the redeemed^(J) might cross over?

    that lifted high the waves.^(F)
26 They mounted up to the heavens and went down to the depths;
    in their peril^(G) their courage melted^(H) away.
²⁷ They reeled^(I) and staggered like drunkards;
    they were at their wits’ end.
