New American Standard Bible (NASB)
2 Samuel 22
3 My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold and my refuge; My savior, You save me from violence.
4 "I call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised, And I am saved from my enemies.
5 "For the waves of death encompassed me; The torrents of destruction overwhelmed me;
6 The cords of Sheol surrounded me; The snares of death confronted me.
7 "In my distress I called upon the Lord, Yes, I cried to my God; And from His temple He heard my voice, And my cry for help came into His ears.
8 "Then the earth shook and quaked, The foundations of heaven were trembling And were shaken, because He was angry.
9 "Smoke went up out of His nostrils, Fire from His mouth devoured; Coals were kindled by it.
10 "He bowed the heavens also, and came down With thick darkness under His feet.
11 "And He rode on a cherub and flew; And He appeared on the wings of the wind.
12 "And He made darkness canopies around Him, A mass of waters, thick clouds of the sky.
13 "From the brightness before Him Coals of fire were kindled.
