2 Samuel 22:5-20

2 Samuel 22:5-20 NASB2020

“For the waves of death encompassed me; The floods of destruction terrified me; The ropes of Sheol surrounded me; The snares of death confronted me. “In my distress I called upon the Lord, Yes, I called out to my God; And from His temple He heard my voice, And my cry for help came into His ears. “Then the earth shook and quaked, The foundations of heaven were trembling And were shaken, because He was angry. “Smoke went up out of His nostrils, And fire from His mouth was devouring; Coals were kindled by it. “He also bowed the heavens down low, and came down With thick darkness under His feet. “He rode on a cherub and flew; He appeared on the wings of the wind. “He made darkness canopies around Him, A mass of waters, thick clouds of the sky. “From the brightness before Him Coals of fire were kindled. “The Lord thundered from heaven, And the Most High uttered His voice. “And He shot arrows and scattered them, Lightning, and routed them. “Then the channels of the sea appeared, The foundations of the world were exposed By the rebuke of the Lord, From the blast of the breath of His nostrils. “He sent from on high, He took me; He drew me out of many waters. “He rescued me from my strong enemy, From those who hated me, for they were too strong for me. “They confronted me on the day of my disaster, But the Lord was my support. “He also brought me out into an open place; He rescued me, because He delighted in me.
