To 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.

brought my life up from the pit.

Then you raised my life from the Pit, Lord my God!

I was imprisoned in the earth,

whose gates lock shut forever.

But you, O Lord my God,

snatched me from the jaws of death!

the Underworld—its bars were around me forever.
