3God, my rock, in him will I take refuge; My shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge; My saviour, thou savest me from violence.

4I will call upon Jehovah, who is worthy to be praised: So shall I be saved from mine enemies.

5For the waves of death compassed me; The floods of ungodliness made me afraid:

6The cords of Sheol were round about me; The snares of death came upon me.

7In my distress I called upon Jehovah; Yea, I called unto my God: And he heard my voice out of his temple, And my cry [came] into his ears.

8Then the earth shook and trembled, The foundations of heaven quaked And were shaken, because he was wroth.

9There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, And fire out of his mouth devoured: Coals were kindled by it.
