40 I ^(A)waited patiently for the Lord;
    he inclined to me and ^(B)heard my cry.
² He drew me up from ^(C)the pit of destruction,
    out of ^(D)the miry bog,
and ^(E)set my feet upon a rock,
    ^(F)making my steps secure.

^7 (A)Stretch out your hand from on high;
    ^(B)rescue me and deliver me from the many waters,
    from the hand ^(C)of foreigners,
⁸ whose mouths speak ^(D)lies
    and whose right hand is ^(E)a right hand of falsehood.
