2 Samuel 22:2-13
English Standard Version
3 my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold and my refuge, my savior; you save me from violence.
4I call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised, and I am saved from my enemies.
5 "For the waves of death encompassed me, the torrents of destruction assailed me;
6 the cords of Sheol entangled me; the snares of death confronted me.
7 "In my distress I called upon the Lord; to my God I called. From his temple he heard my voice, and my cry came to his ears.
8"Then the earth reeled and rocked; the foundations of the heavens trembled and quaked, because he was angry.
9Smoke went up from his nostrils, and devouring fire from his mouth; glowing coals flamed forth from him.
10 He bowed the heavens and came down; thick darkness was under his feet.
11He rode on a cherub and flew; he was seen on the wings of the wind.
12He made darkness around him his canopy, thick clouds, a gathering of water.
13Out of the brightness before him coals of fire flamed forth.
