⁶ Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps.

¹⁵ Let not the waterflood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.

³ For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath smitten my life down to the ground; he hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.

¹³ For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell.

¹³ Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.

⁶ And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.

⁴⁶ I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.

⁵⁵ I called upon thy name, O LORD, out of the low dungeon.

² He hath led me, and brought me into darkness, but not into light.

¹⁹ The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble.

¹ Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD.

² He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.

²² For a fire is kindled in mine anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains.
