Psalm 18:7–19

⁷Then the ^aearth shook and quaked;

And the ^bfoundations of the mountains were trembling

And were shaken, because He was angry.

⁸Smoke went up ¹out of His nostrils,

And ^afire from His mouth devoured;

Coals were kindled by it.

⁹He ^abowed the heavens and came down

With thick ^bdarkness under His feet.

¹⁰He rode upon a ^acherub and flew;

And He sped upon the ^bwings of the wind.

¹¹He made ^adarkness His hiding place, ^bHis ¹canopy around Him,

Darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.

¹²From the ^abrightness before Him passed His thick clouds,

Hailstones and ^bcoals of fire.

¹³Yahweh also ^athundered in the heavens,

And the Most High gave forth His voice,

Hailstones and coals of fire.

¹⁴He ^asent out His arrows, and scattered them,

And lightning flashes in abundance, and ¹threw them into confusion.

¹⁵Then the ^achannels of water appeared,

And the foundations of the world were ¹laid bare

At Your ^brebuke, O Yahweh,

At the blast of the ^cbreath of Your nostrils.

¹⁶He ^asent from on high, He took me;

He drew me out of ^bmany waters.

¹⁷He ^adelivered me from my strong enemy,

And from those who hated me, for they were ^btoo mighty for me.

¹⁸They confronted me in ^athe day of my disaster,

But ^bYahweh was my support.

¹⁹He brought me forth also into a ^abroad place;

He rescued me, because ^bHe delighted in me.
