Psalm 18:4

Praise For Deliverance

³
I call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised;
And I am saved from my enemies. ⁴ 
The cords of death surrounded me,
And the streams of ungodliness and torrents of destruction terrified me.
⁵
The cords of Sheol (the nether world, the place of the dead) surrounded me;
The snares of death confronted me.
