5. The waters surrounded me, even to the soul: the deep closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head.
6. I went down to the foundations of the mountains; the earth with her bars closed about me forever: yet have you brought up my life from the pit, O LORD my God.
7. When my soul fainted within me I remembered the LORD: and my prayer came in unto you, into your holy temple.
8. They that regard vain idols forsake their own mercy.
