Psalms 18:4-6

4The 1cords of death encompassed me, And the 2torrents of 3ungodliness 4terrified me.5The 5cords of 6Sheol surrounded me; The snares of death confronted me.6In my 7distress I called upon the Lord, And cried to my God for help; He heard my voice 8out of His temple, And my 9cry for help before Him came into His ears.
