By the God of your father who will help you,

And by the [fn]Almighty who blesses you

Blessings of the [nursing] breasts and of the [fertile] womb.

“The deep [water] covers them;

[Clad in armor] they sank into the depths like a stone.

“With the blast of Your nostrils the waters piled up,

The flowing waters stood up like a mound;

The deeps were congealed in the heart of the sea.

With the precious things of heaven, with the dew,

Your judgments are like the great deep.

O LORD, You preserve man and beast.

Deep calls to deep at the [thundering] sound of Your waterfalls;

All Your breakers and Your waves have rolled over me.

You who have shown [fn]me many troubles and distresses

Will revive and renew me again,

And will bring me up again from the depths of the earth.

The waters [of the Red Sea] saw You, O God;

The waters saw You, they were in anguish;

The deeps also trembled.

He split rocks in the wilderness

And gave them abundant [water to] drink like the ocean depths.

You covered it with the deep as with a garment;

The waters were standing above the mountains.

He rebuked the Red Sea, and it dried up;

And He led them through the depths as through a pasture.

They went up toward the heavens [on the crest of the wave], they went down again to the depths [of the watery trough];

Whatever the LORD pleases, He does,

In the heavens and on the earth, in the seas and all deeps—

And the clouds drip with dew.

“When there were no ocean depths I was born,

When there were no fountains and springs overflowing with water.

“When He established the heavens, I [Wisdom] was there;

When He drew a circle upon the face of the deep,

Was it not You who dried up the [Red] Sea,

The waters of the great deep,

Who made the depths of the sea a pathway

For the redeemed to cross over?

Who led them through the depths [of the Red Sea],

Like a horse in the wilderness, [so that] they did not stumble?

For thus says the Lord GOD, “When I make you a desolate city, like the cities which are not inhabited, when I bring up the deep over you and great waters cover you,

Its rivers ran all around the place where it was planted,

Sending out its streams to all the trees (other nations) of the field.

‘Thus says the Lord GOD, “On the day when Assyria went down to Sheol (the place of the dead) I caused mourning; I closed the deep [subterranean waters] over it and restrained its rivers. And the many waters [that contributed to its prosperity] were held back; and I made [the heart of] Lebanon mourn for it, and all the trees of the field wilted away because of it.

Thus the Lord GOD showed me, and behold, the Lord GOD called for punishment with fire, and it devoured the great deep [underground sources of water] and began to consume the land.

“The waters surrounded me, to the point of death.

The great deep engulfed me,

Seaweed was wrapped around my head.

The mountains saw You and [they] trembled and writhed [as if in pain];

The downpour of waters swept by [as a deluge].

The deep uttered its voice and raged,

It lifted its hands high.
