King James 2000

2 Samuel 22:3-13 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

3. The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my savior; you save me from violence.

4. I will call on the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from my enemies.

5. When the waves of death surrounded me, the floods of ungodly men made me afraid;

6. The sorrows of Sheol surrounded me; the snares of death confronted me;

7. In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried to my God: and he did hear my voice out of his temple, and my cry did enter into his ears.

8. Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations of heaven moved and shook, because he was angry.

9. There went up smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.

10. He bowed the heavens also, 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 pavilions round about him, dark waters, and thick clouds of the skies.

13. Through the brightness before him were coals of fire kindled.
