The pain of death compassed me, and the rivers of Belial made me afraid. The pain of Sheol compassed me about: the snares of death came before me. In my distress I called upon the LORD and cried unto my God; he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, even into his ears. Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations of the mountains collapsed and were removed because he was wroth. Smoke went up out of his nostrils, and fire devoured out of his mouth; coals were kindled by it. He lowered the heavens and came down; and darkness was under his feet. And he rode upon a cherub and flew: yea, he flew upon the wings of the wind. He made darkness his hiding place; in his tabernacle round about him were dark waters and thick clouds of the heavens. At the brightness that was before him his thick clouds passed, hail stones and coals of fire. The LORD thundered in the heavens, and the Highest gave his voice; hail stones and coals of fire. He sent out his arrows and scattered them; he shot out lightnings and destroyed them. Then the depths of the waters were seen, and the foundations of the world were discovered at thy rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of thy nostrils. He sent from above, he took me, he drew me out of many waters. He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from those who hated me, even though they were too strong for me. They were ready for me in the day of my calamity, but the LORD was my staff. He brought me forth also into a wide place; he delivered me because he delighted in me.
