Now I began to construe the words mentioned above, “Call on Me, and I will deliver thee,” in a different sense from what I had ever done before; for then I had no notion of anything being called _deliverance_, but my being delivered from the captivity I was in; for though I was indeed at large in the place, yet the island was certainly a prison to me, and that in the worse sense in the world.
Ahora empezaba a comprender las palabras mencionadas anteriormente, Invócame y te liberaré, en un sentido diferente al que lo había hecho antes, porque entonces no tenía la menor idea de nada que pudiese llamarse salvación, si no era de la condición de cautiverio en la que me encontraba; pues, si bien estaba libre en este lugar, la isla era una verdadera prisión para mí, en el peor sentido.
