10 Some sat in darkness,(A) in utter darkness,
    prisoners suffering(B) in iron chains,(C)
11 because they rebelled(D) against God’s commands
    and despised(E) the plans(F) of the Most High.

    they stumbled, and there was no one to help.(G)
13 Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble,
    and he saved them(H) from their distress.
14 He brought them out of darkness,(I) the utter darkness,(J)
    and broke away their chains.(K)
15 Let them give thanks(L) to the Lord for his unfailing love(M)
    and his wonderful deeds(N) for mankind,
16 for he breaks down gates of bronze
    and cuts through bars of iron.
