3 I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.
4 The cords of death compassed me, and the floods of ungodliness made me afraid.
5 The cords of Sheol were round about me: the snares of death came on me.
6 In my distress I called upon the Lord, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry before him came into his ears.
7 Then the earth shook and trembled, me foundations also of the mountains moved and were shaken, because he was wroth.
8 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.
9 He bowed the heavens also, and came down, and thick darkness was under his feet.
