2 Samuel 22:5-7

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁵ The waves of death swirled around me.
Floodwaters of destruction^[a] rolled over me.
⁶ The ropes of the grave wrapped around me.
The traps of death threatened me.
⁷ In my distress I called to the Lord.
To my God I cried out.
He heard my voice from his temple.
My cry for help reached his ears.
