ἐν θλίψει μου πρὸς κύριον τὸν θεόν μου καὶ εἰσήκουσέν μου ἐκ κοιλίας ᾅδου κραυγῆς μου ἤκουσας φωνῆς μου
I cried out in my affliction to the Lord my God, and he heard me; from the belly of Hades you heard the cry of my voice.

με εἰς βάθη καρδίας θαλάσσης καὶ ποταμοί με ἐκύκλωσαν πάντες οἱ μετεωρισμοί σου καὶ τὰ κύματά σου ἐπ᾿ ἐμὲ διῆλθον
You cast me into the depths of the heart of the sea, and all your currents have surrounded me; all your surging waves passed over me.
And I said, I am thrust away from your sight; shall I again add to look toward your holy temple?
Water was poured around me up to my life; the abyss surrounded me. The last, my head sank into the clefts of the mountains.
I went down into a land whose bars are eternal possessors, and let my life go up from corruption, O Lord, my God
τῷ ἐκλείπειν τὴν ψυχήν μου ἀπ᾿ ἐμοῦ τοῦ κυρίου ἐμνήσθην καὶ ἔλθοι πρὸς σὲ ἡ προσευχή μου εἰς ναὸν ἅγιόν σου
When my soul was failing from me, I remembered the Lord, and may my prayer come to you into your holy temple
Those who guard worthless things and lies have abandoned their mercy.
But I with a voice of praise and confession will sacrifice to you; as many things as I vowed, I will repay to you for my salvation to the Lord.
