12. Therefore he brought down their heart with labor; they fell down, and there was none to help.
13. Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.
14. He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and broke their bands asunder.
15. Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
16. For he has broken the gates of bronze, and cut the bars of iron in two.
17. Fools because of their transgression, and because of their iniquities, are afflicted.
18. Their soul abhors all manner of food; and they draw near unto the gates of death.
