³ For the enemy has persecuted my soul;
He has crushed my life ^(A)to the ground;
He ^(B)has made me dwell in dark places, like those who have long been dead.

⁷ To ^(A)open blind eyes,
To ^(B)bring out prisoners from the dungeon
And those who dwell in darkness from the prison.

^8 (A)Do not rejoice over me, ^(B)enemy of mine.
Though I fall I will ^(C)rise;
Though I live in darkness, the Lord is a ^(D)light for me.

^79 (A)To shine on those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death,
To guide our feet into the ^(B)way of peace.”
