3(18:4) Praised, I cried, be the Lord, and from my enemies was I saved.
4(18:5) The bonds of death encompassed me, and the floods of destruction made me afraid.
5(18:6) The bonds of hell encircled me: the snares of death seized on me.
6(18:7) When in my distress I called upon the Lord, and unto my God I cried: he heard from his temple my voice, and my complaint came before him, even into his ears.
7(18:8) Then shook and trembled the earth; and the foundations of the mountains were moved; and they were shaken, because he was wroth.
8(18:9) Smoke went up in his anger and consuming fire out of his mouth: coals flamed forth from him.
9(18:10) And he bent the heavens, and came down: and thick darkness was under his feet:
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.
