Tree Of Life Version

Psalms 18:9-19 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

9. Smoke rose from His nostrils and consuming fire from His mouth. Coals blazed from Him.

10. He parted the heavens and came down, with thick darkness under His feet.

11. He rode upon a cheruv and flew. He soared on the wings of the wind.

12. He made darkness His cover, His sukkah all around Him— dark waters, thick clouds.

13. Out of the brilliance before Him passed His thick clouds, hail and fiery coals.

14. Adonai also thundered in the heavens, and Elyon gave forth His voice, hail and fiery coals.

15. He shot His arrows and scattered them, hurled lightning bolts and routed them.

16. Then ravines of water appeared. The foundations of earth were exposed, at Your rebuke, Adonai, at a blast of breath from Your nostrils.

17. He reached down from on high and took hold of me. He drew me out of mighty waters.

18. He saved me from my powerful enemy, from those who hated me— for they were much stronger than me.

19. They came against me in my day of calamity, but Adonai was my support.
