Psalm 18:5-11
Holman Christian Standard Bible
5 The ropes of Sheol entangled me;
the snares of death confronted me.(A)
6 I called to the Lord in my distress,
and I cried to my God for help.
From His temple He heard my voice,(B)
and my cry to Him reached His ears.(C)
7 Then the earth shook and quaked;
the foundations of the mountains trembled;(D)
they shook because He burned with anger.
8 Smoke rose from His nostrils,
and consuming fire came from His mouth;
coals were set ablaze by it.[a](E)
9 He parted the heavens and came down,(F)
a dark cloud beneath His feet.
10 He rode on a cherub and flew,
soaring on the wings of the wind.(G)
11 He made darkness His hiding place,
dark storm clouds His canopy around Him.(H)
