4 Death had wrappedits ropes around me,and I was almost swallowedby its flooding waters.
5 Ropes from the worldof the deadhad coiled around me,and death had set a trapin my path.
6 I was in terrible troublewhen I called out to you,but from your templeyou heard meand answered my prayer.
7 The earth shook and shivered,and the mountains trembleddown to their roots.You were angry
8 and breathed out smoke.Scorching heat and fiery flamesspewed from your mouth.
9 You opened the heavenslike curtains,and you came downwith storm cloudsunder your feet.
10 You rode on the backsof flying creaturesand swooped downwith the wind as wings.
