Behold, for peace I had great bitterness: but thou hast in love to my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.

A man that doeth violence to the blood of any person shall flee to the pit; let no man stay him.

He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.

If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands never so clean; Yet shalt thou plunge me in the ditch, and mine own clothes shall abhor me.

Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps.

The mouth of strange women is a deep pit: he that is abhorred of the LORD shall fall therein.

For a whore is a deep ditch; and a strange woman is a narrow pit.

They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and cast a stone upon me. Waters flowed over mine head; then I said, I am cut off. I called upon thy name, O LORD, out of the low dungeon.

As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.
