I sank down to the bottom of the mountains. I thought I had died and gone down into the grave forever. But you are the Lord my God. You brought my life up from the very edge of the pit of death.

To the roots of the mountains I sank down; the earth beneath barred me in forever. But you, Lord my God, brought my life up from the pit.

at the roots of the mountains. I went down to the land whose bars closed upon me forever; yet you brought up my life from the pit, O Lord my God.

I sank down to the very roots of the mountains. I was imprisoned in the earth, whose gates lock shut forever. But you, O Lord my God, snatched me from the jaws of death!

I sank to the foundations of the mountains, the earth’s gates shut behind me forever! Then you raised my life from the Pit, LORD my God!

I descended to the base of the mountains. The earth with its bars was around me forever, But You have brought up my life from the pit, Lord my God.

I went down to the moorings of the mountains; The earth with its bars closed behind me forever; Yet You have brought up my life from the pit, O Lord, my God.

I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; The earth with its bars closed upon me for ever: Yet hast thou brought up my life from the pit, O Jehovah my God.

I sank to the foundations of the mountains; the earth with its prison bars closed behind me forever! But You raised my life from the Pit, Lord my God!

I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars[ was] about me for ever: yet hast thou brought up my life from corruption, O LORD my God.

I went down to the very bottoms of the mountains; the gates of the netherworld barred me in forever; but you brought me up from the Pit, O LORD, my God.

I went down to the bottoms of the mountains. The earth barred me in forever: yet have you brought up my life from the pit, Yahweh my God.

Lord, you brought me up from the place of the dead. You kept me from going down into the pit.

I’m sure it was for my benefit that I suffered such great pain. You love me. You kept me from going down into the pit of death. You have put all my sins behind your back.

Before the mountains were settled in place, I was born. Before there were any hills, I was born.It happened before the Lord made the world and its fields. It was before he made the dust of the earth.I was there when he set the heavens in place. When he marked out the place where the sky meets the sea, I was there.That was when he put the clouds above. It was when he fixed the ocean springs in place.It was when he set limits for the sea so that the waters had to obey his command. When the Lord marked out the foundations of the earth, I was there.

You will not leave me in the place of the dead. You will not let your faithful one rot away.

Who has measured the oceans by using the palm of his hand? Who has used the width of his hand to mark off the sky? Who has measured out the dust of the earth in a basket? Who has weighed the mountains on scales? Who has weighed the hills in a balance?

God, you will bring sinners down to the grave. Murderers and liars won’t live out even half of their lives. But I trust in you.

They flowed down the mountains. They went into the valleys. They went to the place you appointed for them.

Lord, answer me quickly. I’m growing weak. Don’t turn your face away from me, or I will be like those who go down into the grave.

You formed the mountains by your power. You showed how strong you are.

That angel will be gracious to them. He’ll say to God,‘ Spare them from going down into the grave. I know a way that can set them free.’

he has done for us, their children. He has raised up Jesus. This is what is written in the second Psalm. It says,“‘ You are my son. Today I have become your father.’( Psalm 2:7)God raised Jesus from the dead. He will never rot in the grave. As God has said,“‘ Holy and sure blessings were promised to David. I will give them to you.’( Isaiah 55:3)In another place it also says,“‘ You will not let your holy one rot away.’( Psalm 16:10)“ David carried out God’s purpose while he lived. Then he died. He was buried with his people. His body rotted away.But the one whom God raised from the dead did not rot away.

I said,“ What good will come if I become silent in death? What good will come if I go down into the grave? Can the dust of my dead body praise you? Can it tell how faithful you are?

“ Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation? Tell me, if you know.Who measured it? I am sure you know! Who stretched a measuring line across it?What was it built on? Who laid its most important stone?When it happened, the morning stars sang together. All the angels shouted with joy.“ Who created the ocean? Who caused it to be born?I put clouds over it as if they were its clothes. I wrapped it in thick darkness.I set limits for it. I put its doors and metal bars in place.I said,‘ You can come this far. But you can’t come any farther. Here is where your proud waves have to stop.’

My anger will start a fire. It will burn all the way down to the kingdom of the dead. It will eat up the earth and its crops. It will set the base of the mountains on fire.

When he stood up, the earth shook. When he looked at the nations, they trembled with fear. The age- old mountains crumbled. The ancient hills fell down. But he marches on forever.

You, Lord, covered it with the oceans like a blanket. The waters covered the mountains.

The mountains saw you and shook. Floods of water swept by. The sea roared. It lifted its waves high.

God has set me free. He has kept me from going down into the darkness of the grave. So I’ll live to enjoy the light of life.’
