2 Samuel 22:8–20

⁸Then the earth shook and trembled,

The foundations of heaven quaked

And were shaken, because he was wroth.

⁹There went up a smoke out of his nostrils,

And fire out of his mouth devoured:

Coals were kindled by it.

¹⁰He bowed the heavens also, and came down;

And thick darkness was under his feet.

¹¹And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly;

Yea, he was seen upon the wings of the wind.

¹²And he made darkness pavilions round about him,

Gathering of waters, thick clouds of the skies.

¹³At the brightness before him

Coals of fire were kindled.

¹⁴Jehovah thundered from heaven,

And the Most High uttered his voice.

¹⁵And he sent out arrows, and scattered them;

Lightning, and discomfited them.

¹⁶Then the channels of the sea appeared,

The foundations of the world were laid bare,

By the rebuke of Jehovah,

At the blast of the breath of his nostrils.

¹⁷He sent from on high, he took me;

He drew me out of many waters;

¹⁸He delivered me from my strong enemy,

From them that hated me; for they were too mighty for me.

¹⁹They came upon me in the day of my calamity;

But Jehovah was my stay.

²⁰He brought me forth also into a large place;

He delivered me, because he delighted in me.
