(B)Bound[a] in affliction and irons—
11 Because they (C)rebelled against the words of God,
And [b]despised (D)the counsel of the Most High,
12 Therefore He brought down their heart with labor;
They fell down, and there was (E)none to help.
13 Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble,
And He saved them out of their distresses.
14 (F)He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death,
And broke their chains in pieces.
15 Oh, that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness,
And for His wonderful works to the children of men!
16 For He has (G)broken the gates of bronze,
And cut the bars of iron in two.
