“The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.”
“The cords of death compassed me, And the pains of Sheol gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow. ”
“The cords of death surrounded me, the pains of Sheol got a hold of me. I found trouble and sorrow.”
“The ropes of death tightened around me, the snares of Sheol confronted me. I was confronted with trouble and sorrow.”
“The nets of death were round me, and the pains of the underworld had me in their grip; I was full of trouble and sorrow.”
“The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.”
I love the LORD, because he has heard my voice and my supplications.
Because he has inclined his ear to me, therefore will I call on him as long as I live.
The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell got hold on me: I found trouble and sorrow.
Then called I on the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech you, deliver my soul.
Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; yes, our God is merciful.
The LORD preserves the simple: I was brought low, and he helped me.
