Psalms 18:6-14

6In my distress I called upon the LORD; I cried to my God for help. From His temple He heard my voice, and my cry for His help reached His ears.

7Then the earth shook and quaked,and the foundations of the mountains trembled;they were shaken because He burned with anger.8Smoke rose from His nostrils,and consuming fire came from His mouth;glowing coals blazed forth.9He parted the heavens and came downwith dark clouds beneath His feet.10He mounted a cherub and flew;He soared on the wings of the wind.11He made darkness His hiding place,and storm clouds a canopy around Him.12From the brightness of His presenceHis clouds advanced—hailstones and coals of fire.1
13The LORD thundered from heaven;the voice of the Most High resounded—hailstones and coals of fire.214He shot His arrows and scattered the foes;He hurled lightning and routed them.
