For you had cast me into the deep, in the midst of the seas; and the floods surrounded me: all your billows and your waves passed over me.
When the waves of death surrounded me, the floods of ungodly men made me afraid;
I love the LORD, because he has heard my voice and my supplications.
Because he has inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live.
[A song of ascents.] In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he heard me.
Deep calls unto deep at the noise of your waterfalls: all your waves and your billows are gone over me.
Waters flowed over my head; then I said, I am cut off.
I called upon your name, O LORD, out of the lowest dungeon.
