12(18-13) At the brightness before Him, there passed through His thick clouds hailstones and coals of fire.
13(18-14) The LORD also thundered in the heavens, and the Most High gave forth His voice; hailstones 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 the channels of waters appeared, and the foundations of the world were laid bare, at Thy rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of Thy nostrils.
16(18-17) He sent from on high, He took me; He drew me out of many waters.
17(18-18) He delivered me from mine enemy most strong, and from them that hated me, for they were too mighty for me.
18(18-19) They confronted me in the day of my calamity; but the LORD was a stay unto me.
19(18-20) He brought me forth also into a large place; He delivered me, because He delighted in me.
20(18-21) The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands hath He recompensed 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 I put not away His statutes from me.
23(18-24) And I was single-hearted with Him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity.
24(18-25) Therefore hath the LORD recompensed me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in His eyes.
25(18-26) With the merciful Thou dost show Thyself merciful, with the upright man Thou dost show Thyself upright;
26(18-27) With the pure Thou dost show Thyself pure; and with the crooked Thou dost show Thyself subtle.
27(18-28) For Thou dost save the afflicted people; but the haughty eyes Thou dost humble.
28(18-29) For Thou dost light my lamp; the LORD my God doth lighten my darkness.
29(18-30) For by Thee I run upon a troop; and by my God do I scale a wall.
30(18-31) As for God, His way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried; He is a shield unto all them that take refuge in Him.
31(18-32) For who is God, save the LORD? And who is a Rock, except our God?
32(18-33) The God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way straight;
33(18-34) Who maketh my feet like hinds', and setteth me upon my high places;
34(18-35) Who traineth my hands for war, so that mine arms do bend a bow of brass.
35(18-36) Thou hast also given me Thy shield of salvation, and Thy right hand hath holden me up; and Thy condescension hath made me great.
36(18-37) Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, and my feet have not slipped.
37(18-38) I have pursued mine enemies, and overtaken them; neither did I turn back till they were consumed.
38(18-39) I have smitten them through, so that they are not able to rise; they are fallen under my feet.
39(18-40) For Thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle; Thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me.
40(18-41) Thou hast also made mine enemies turn their backs unto me, and I did cut off them that hate me.
41(18-42) They cried, but there was none to save; even unto the LORD, but He answered them not.
42(18-43) Then did I beat them small as the dust before the wind; I did cast them out as the mire of the streets.
43(18-44) Thou hast delivered me from the contentions of the people; Thou hast made me the head of the nations; a people whom I have not known serve me.
44(18-45) As soon as they hear of me, they obey me; the sons of the stranger dwindle away before me.
45(18-46) The sons of the stranger fade away, and come 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) Even the God that executeth vengeance for me, and subdueth peoples under me.
48(18-49) He delivereth me from mine enemies; yea, Thou liftest me up above them that rise up against me; Thou deliverest me from the violent man.
