Psalm 18:3-5
Contemporary English Version

3 I praise you, Lord!
I prayed, and you rescued me
    from my enemies.
4 Death had wrapped
    its ropes around me,
and I was almost swallowed
    by its flooding waters.

5 Ropes from the world
of the dead
    had coiled around me,
and death had set a trap
    in my path.
