Psalms - ch 18 v 1 - 20
- I love thee, O Jehovah, my strength.
- Jehovah is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; My God, my rock, in whom I will take refuge; My shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower.
- I will call upon Jehovah, who is worthy to be praised: So shall I be saved from mine enemies.
- The cords of death compassed me, And the floods of ungodliness made me afraid.
- The cords of Sheol were round about me; The snares of death came upon me.
- In my distress I called upon Jehovah, And cried unto my God: He heard my voice out of his temple, And my cry before him came into his ears.
- Then the earth shook and trembled; The foundations also of the mountains quaked And were shaken, because he was wroth.
- There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, And fire out of his mouth devoured: Coals were kindled by it.
- He bowed the heavens also, and came down; And thick darkness was under his feet.
- And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly; Yea, he soared upon the wings of the wind.
- He made darkness his hiding-place, his pavilion round about him, Darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.
- At the brightness before him his thick clouds passed, Hailstones and coals of fire.
- Jehovah also thundered in the heavens, And the Most High uttered his voice, Hailstones and coals of fire.
- And he sent out his arrows, and scattered them; Yea, lightnings manifold, and discomfited them.
- Then the channels of waters appeared, And the foundations of the world were laid bare, At thy rebuke, O Jehovah, At the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.
- He sent from on high, he took me; He drew me out of many waters.
- He delivered me from my strong enemy, And from them that hated me; for they were too mighty for me.
- They came upon me in the day of my calamity; But Jehovah was my stay.
- He brought me forth also into a large place; He delivered me, because he delighted in me.
- Jehovah hath rewarded me according to my righteousness; According to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.
