Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron;

For those who oppose me are pursuing my life, crushing me to the ground, making me sit in darkness like those who died long ago.

To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house.

Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD shall be a light unto me.

the people who sit in darkness have seen a great light, and the ones who sit in the land and shadow of death, a light has dawned on them."

To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.
