Psalms 18:6-10 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

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.

9. Smoke rose from his nostrils,a devouring fire from his mouth;it kindled coals into flame.

10. He parted the heavens and came down,a dark cloud under his feet.
