Psalm 18:4-6

EasyEnglish Bible

⁴ Death was near enough to catch me!
    Danger was like a river that poured over me.
⁵ Death was tying me up with ropes,
    to pull me into the deep hole of the grave.
⁶ In my trouble, I prayed to the Lord.
    I called to my God to help me.
He heard my voice from his home in heaven.
    My prayer reached his ears.
