2 Samuel 22:8-16

8Then 1the earth shook and quaked, 2The foundations of heaven were trembling And were shaken, because He was angry.9Smoke went up 3out of His nostrils, 4And fire from His mouth was devouring; 5Coals were kindled by it.10He also bowed the heavens down low, and came down With 6thick darkness under His feet.11 7He rode on a cherub and flew; He 8appeared on 9the wings of the wind.12 10He made darkness canopies around Him, A mass of waters, thick clouds of the sky.13From the brightness before Him 11Coals of fire were kindled.14 12The Lord thundered from heaven, And the Most High uttered His voice.15 13And He shot arrows and scattered them, Lightning, and 14routed them.16Then the channels of the sea appeared, The foundations of the world were exposed By the rebuke of the Lord, 15From the blast of the breath of His nostrils.
