² He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.

²³ The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way.

⁵ For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.

¹³³ Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.

²⁴ Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

²⁵ And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

² I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.

² From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

¹³ For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell.

²⁰ Thou, which hast shewed me great and sore troubles, shalt quicken me again, and shalt bring me up again from the depths of the earth.

⁵ The waters compassed me about, even to the soul: the depth closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head.

⁶ I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars was about me for ever: yet hast thou brought up my life from corruption, O Lord my God.
