Psalms 18:2-8 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

2. He said:I love you, Lord, my strength,

3. Lord, my rock, my fortress, my deliverer,My God, my rock of refuge,my shield, my saving horn, my stronghold!

4. Praised be the Lord, I exclaim!I have been delivered from my enemies.

5. The cords of death encompassed me;the torrents of destruction terrified me.

6. The cords of Sheol encircled me;the snares of death lay in wait for me.

7. In my distress I called out: Lord!I cried out to my God.From his temple he heard my voice;my cry to him reached his ears.

8. The earth rocked and shook;the foundations of the mountains trembled;they shook as his wrath flared up.
