The depths have covered them, they went down to the bottom like a stone.

You place me in the lowest regions of the pit, in the dark places, in the watery depths.

They witnessed the acts of the Lord, his amazing feats on the deep water.

It makes the deep boil like a cauldron and stirs up the sea like a pot of ointment,

The Lord says, “I will retrieve them from Bashan, I will bring them back from the depths of the sea,

I sink into the deep mire where there is no solid ground; I am in deep water, and the current overpowers me.

You threw me into the deep waters, into the middle of the sea; the ocean current engulfed me; all the mighty waves you sent swept over me.

You will once again have mercy on us; you will conquer our evil deeds; you will hurl our sins into the depths of the sea.

You split the sea before them, and they crossed through the sea on dry ground! But you threw their pursuers into the depths, like a stone into surging waters.

Don’t let the current overpower me! Don’t let the deep swallow me up! Don’t let the pit devour me!

The Lord will cross the sea of storms and will calm its turbulence. The depths of the Nile will dry up, the pride of Assyria will be humbled, and the domination of Egypt will be no more.
