²² Then ^(A)his soul draws near to the pit,
And his life to those who bring death.

²⁴ Then let him be gracious to him, and say,
‘Deliver him from ^(A)going down to the pit;
I have found ^(B)atonement’;

²⁸ He has redeemed my soul from passing into the pit,
And my life shall ^(A)see the light.’

³⁰ To ^(A)bring back his soul from the pit,
That he may be enlightened with the light of life.
