4  ^pThe cords of death encompassed me;

^qthe torrents of destruction assailed me;¹

16  He ^ksent from on high, he took me;

he ^ldrew me out of ^mmany waters.

7  Deep calls to deep

at the roar of your waterfalls;

^jall your breakers and your ^kwaves

have gone over me.

1  Save me, O God!

For ^uthe waters have come up to my neck.¹

7  ^vStretch out your hand from on high;

^wrescue me and deliver me from the many waters,

from the hand ^xof foreigners,

11  or ^mdarkness, so that you cannot see,

and a ⁿflood of ^owater covers you.
