Psalms 18:15-23

¹⁵You roared, Lord, and by the wind from the breath of your nostrils the valleys of the sea were exposed and the foundations of the earth were uncovered.

¹⁶He reached down his hand from above and grabbed hold of me. He pulled me out of the deep water.

¹⁷He rescued me from my powerful enemies, from those who hated me and who were much stronger than me.

¹⁸They came at me at my worst possible moment, but the Lord supported me.

¹⁹He set me free, he rescued me because he's my friend.

²⁰The Lord rewarded me because I do what's right; he repaid me because I am innocent.

²¹For I have followed the Lord's ways; I have not sinned by turning away from my God.

²²I have kept all his laws in mind; I have not ignored his commandments.

²³I am blameless in his sight; I keep myself from sinning.
