10(18:11) And he rode upon a cherub, and flew along, and he flitted by upon the wings of the wind.
11(18:12) He made darkness his hiding-place, round about him as his pavilion, dark waters, thick clouds of the skies.
12(18:13) From the brightness before him his thick clouds passed away, with hail-stones and coals of fire.
13(18:14) And the Lord thundered in the heavens, and the Most High uttered forth his voice, with hail-stones and coals of fire.
14(18:15) And he sent out his arrows, and scattered them; and he shot forth lightnings, and discomfited them.
15(18:16) And then were seen the channels of the waters, and there were laid open the foundations of the world, through thy rebuke, O Lord, through the blast of the breath of thy nostrils.
16(18:17) He stretched out from above his hand, he took me; he drew me out from mighty waters.
17(18:18) He delivered me from my enemy, the strong, and from those that hated me, when they were too mighty for me.
18(18:19) They overcame me on the day of my calamity; but the Lord became my stay.
19(18:20) And he brought me forth into a large space; he delivered me, because he had delight in me.
20(18:21) The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to the purity of my hands did he recompense me.
21(18:22) For I have kept the ways of the Lord, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
22(18:23) For all his ordinances were before me, and his statutes had I not put away from me.
23(18:24) I was also upright with him, and I guarded myself against my iniquity.
24(18:25) Therefore did the Lord recompense me according to my righteousness, according to the purity of my hands before his eyes.
25(18:26) With the kind thou wilt show thyself kind; with the upright man thou wilt show thyself upright;
26(18:27) With the pure thou wilt show thyself pure; and with the perverse thou wilt wage a contest.
27(18:28) For thou wilt indeed save the afflicted people; but haughty eyes wilt thou bring down.
28(18:29) For thou wilt cause my light to shine: the Lord my God will enlighten my darkness.
29(18:30) For aided by thee I run through a troop; and helped by my God I leap over a wall.
30(18:31) As for God,—his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is tried: he is a shield to all those that trust in him.
31(18:32) For who is God save the Lord? or who is a rock beside our God?
32(18:33) He is the God that girdeth me with strength, and rendereth my way unobstructed.
33(18:34) He maketh my feet like those of the hinds, and upon my high-places he causeth me to stand.
34(18:35) He teacheth my hands for the war, so that a brazen bow is bent by my arms.
35(18:36) And thou gavest me the shield of thy salvation, and thy right hand supported me: and thy meekness hath made me great.
36(18:37) Thou enlargest my steps under me, so that my joints do not slip.
37(18:38) I pursue my enemies, and overtake them; and I return not again till I have made an end of them.
38(18:39) I crush them that they are not able to rise: they fall under my feet.
39(18:40) For thou hast girded me with strength for the war: thou subduest my opponents under me.
40(18:41) And my enemies thou causest to turn their back to me; and those that hate me,—that I may destroy them.
41(18:42) They cry, but there is none to help; unto the Lord,—but he answereth them not.
42(18:43) And I beat them small as the dust before the wind: like the dirt in the streets do I cast them out.
43(18:44) Thou deliverest me from the contests of the people; thou appointest me to be the head of nations: a people that I know not shall serve me.
44(18:45) As soon as their ear heareth they shall be obedient to me: the children of the stranger shall utter flattery unto me.
45(18:46) The children of the stranger shall fade away, and come forth trembling out of their close places.
46(18:47) The Lord liveth, and blessed be my Rock; and exalted be the God of my salvation;
47(18:48) The God that granteth me vengeance, and subdueth nations under me;
48(18:49) That delivereth me from my enemies: also above my opponents thou liftest me up; thou deliverest me from the man of violence.
49(18:50) Therefore will I give thanks unto thee among the nations, O Lord, and unto thy name will I sing praises,—
50(18:51) To him that maketh great the salvation of his king, and who sheweth kindness to his anointed, to David, and to his seed for ever.
