53. They have silenced me in the pit And have placed a stone on me.
54. Waters flowed over my head; I said, "I am cut off!"
55. I called on Your name, O Lord, Out of the lowest pit.
56. You have heard my voice, "Do not hide Your ear from my prayer for relief, From my cry for help."
57. You drew near when I called on You; You said, "Do not fear!"
58. O Lord, You have pleaded my soul's cause; You have redeemed my life.
59. O Lord, You have seen my oppression; Judge my case.
60. You have seen all their vengeance, All their schemes against me.
61. You have heard their reproach, O Lord, All their schemes against me.
62. The lips of my assailants and their whispering Are against me all day long.
