6But in my trouble did I call vpon the Lord, and cryed vnto my God: he heard my voyce out of his Temple, and my crye did come before him, euen into his eares.
7Then the earth trembled, and quaked: the foundations also of the mountaines mooued and shooke, because he was angrie.
8Smoke went out at his nostrels, and a consuming fire out of his mouth: coales were kindled thereat.
9He bowed the heauens also and came downe, and darkenes was vnder his feete.
10And he rode vpon Cherub and did flie, and he came flying vpon the wings of the winde.
11He made darkenes his secrete place, and his pauilion round about him, euen darkenesse of waters, and cloudes of the ayre.
12At the brightnes of his presence his clouds passed, haylestones and coles of fire.
13The Lord also thundred in the heauen, and the Highest gaue his voyce, haylestones and coales of fire.
14Then hee sent out his arrowes and scattred them, and he increased lightnings and destroyed them.
15And the chanels of waters were seene, and the foundations of the worlde were discouered at thy rebuking, O Lord, at the blasting of the breath of thy nostrels.
16He hath sent downe from aboue and taken mee: hee hath drawen mee out of many waters.
17He hath deliuered mee from my strong enemie, and from them which hate me: for they were too strong for me.
18They preuented me in the day of my calamitie: but the Lord was my stay.
19Hee brought mee foorth also into a large place: hee deliuered mee because hee fauoured me.
20The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousnes: according to the purenes of mine hands he recompensed me:
21Because I kept the wayes of the Lord, and did not wickedly against my God.
22For all his Lawes were before mee, and I did not cast away his commandements from mee.
23I was vpright also with him, and haue kept me from my wickednes.
