Psalms 18:7-19

7Then the earthH776 shookH1607 and quakedH7493, and the foundationsH4144 of the mountainsH2022 trembledH7264; they were shakenH1607 becauseH3588 He burned with angerH2734.8SmokeH6227 roseH5927 from His nostrilsH639, and consumingH398 fireH784 came fromH4480 His mouthH6310; glowing coalsH1513 blazed forthH1197.9He partedH5186 the heavensH8064 and came downH3381 with dark cloudsH6205 beneathH8478 His feetH7272.10He mountedH7392 H5921 a cherubH3742 and flewH5774; He soaredH1675 onH5921 the wingsH3671 of the windH7307.11He madeH7896 darknessH2822 His hiding placeH5643, and stormH4325 cloudsH5645 a canopyH5521 H2824 around HimH5439.12From the brightnessH5051 of His presenceH5048 His cloudsH5645 advancedH5674— hailstonesH1259 and coalsH1513 of fireH784.1

13The LORDH3068 thunderedH7481 from heavenH8064;the voiceH6963 of the Most HighH5945 resoundedH5414—hailstonesH1259 and coalsH1513 of fireH784.214He shotH7971 His arrowsH2671 and scatteredH6327 the foes;He hurledH7232 lightningH1300 and routed themH2000.15The channelsH650 of the seaH4325 appearedH7200,and the foundationsH4146 of the worldH8398 were exposedH1540,at Your rebukeH1606, O LORDH3068,at the blastH5397 of the breathH7307 of Your nostrilsH639.

16He reached downH7971 from on highH4791 and took hold of meH3947;He drew meH4871 out of deepH7227 watersH4325.17He rescued meH5337 from my powerfulH5794 enemyH341,from foesH8130 too mightyH553 for meH4480.18They confronted meH6923 in my dayH3117 of calamityH343,but the LORDH3068 wasH1961 my supportH4937.19He brought me outH3318 into the openH4800;He rescued meH2502 becauseH3588 He delightedH2654 in me.
