4 ‘I called to the Lord, who is worthy of praise,and have been saved from my enemies.
5 The waves of death swirled about me;the torrents of destruction overwhelmed me.
6 The cords of the grave coiled around me;the snares of death confronted me.
7 ‘In my distress I called to the Lord;I called out to my God.From his temple he heard my voice;my cry came to his ears.
8 The earth trembled and quaked,the foundations of the heavens shook;they trembled because he was angry.
9 Smoke rose from his nostrils;consuming fire came from his mouth,burning coals blazed out of it.
10 He parted the heavens and came down;dark clouds were under his feet.
