2 Samuel 22:9-25 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

9. There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, And fire out of his mouth devoured: Coals burned forth from it.

10. And he bowed the heavens, and came down; And darkness was under his feet.

11. And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly; And he was seen upon the wings of the wind.

12. And he made darkness round about him a tent, Gatherings of waters, thick clouds of the skies.

13. From the brightness before him Burned forth coals of fire.

14. Jehovah thundered from the heavens, And the Most High uttered his voice.

15. And he sent arrows, and scattered mine enemies; Lightning, and discomfited them.

16. And the beds of the sea were seen, The foundations of the world were uncovered At the rebuke of Jehovah, At the blast of the breath of his nostrils.

17. He reached forth from above, he took me, He drew me out of great waters;

18. He delivered me from my strong enemy, From them that hated me; For they were mightier than I.

19. They encountered me in the day of my calamity; But Jehovah was my stay.

20. And he brought me forth into a large place; He delivered me, because he delighted in me.

21. Jehovah hath rewarded me according to my righteousness, According to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.

22. For I have kept the ways of Jehovah, And have not wickedly departed from my God

23. For all his ordinances were before me, And his statutes, I did not depart from them,

24. And I was upright before him, And kept myself from mine iniquity.

25. And Jehovah hath recompensed me according to my righteousness, According to my cleanness in his sight.
