14Adonai also thundered from heaven and Elyon gave forth His voice. 15He shot arrows and scattered them, lightning bolts, and routed them. Then the ravines of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were exposed by the rebuke of Adonai, at a blast of the breath of His nostrils. 17He reached down from on high and He took hold of me. He drew me out of mighty waters. 18He delivered me from my powerful enemy, from those who hated me— for they were much stronger than me.
