10 Some were living in gloom and darkness,prisoners suffering in chains,
11 because they had rebelled against the commands of Almighty Godand had rejected his instructions.
12 They were worn out from hard work;they would fall down, and no one would help.
13 Then in their trouble they called to the Lord,and he saved them from their distress.
14 He brought them out of their gloom and darknessand broke their chains in pieces.
15 They must thank the Lord for his constant love,for the wonderful things he did for them.
16 He breaks down doors of bronzeand smashes iron bars.
