His trouble comes back on his own head,
and his violence falls on the top of his head.

He reached down from heaven
and took hold of me;
He pulled me out of deep waters.

Deep calls to deep in the roar of Your waterfalls;
all Your breakers and Your billows have swept over me.

Surely You desire integrity in the inner self,
and You teach me wisdom deep within.

I have sunk in deep mud, and there is no footing;
I have come into deep waters,
and a flood sweeps over me.

Rescue me from the miry mud; don’t let me sink.
Let me be rescued from those who hate me
and from the deep waters.

Don’t let the floodwaters sweep over me
or the deep swallow me up;
don’t let the Pit close its mouth over me.

You covered it with the deep
as if it were a garment;
the waters stood above the mountains.

They saw the Lord’s works,
His wonderful works in the deep.

Reach down from heaven;
rescue me from deep water, and set me free
from the grasp of foreigners
