Contextual Overview

2He said: "The LORD is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer. 3My God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation. My stronghold, my refuge, and my Savior, You save me from violence. 4I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised; so shall I be saved from my enemies. 5For the waves of death engulfed me; the torrents of chaos overwhelmed me. 6The cords of Sheol entangled me; the snares of death confronted me. 7In my distress I called upon the LORD; I cried out to my God. And from His temple He heard my voice, and my cry for help reached His ears. 8Then the earth shook and quaked; the foundations of the heavens trembled; they were shaken because He burned with anger. 9Smoke rose from His nostrils, and consuming fire came from His mouth; glowing coals flamed forth. 10He parted the heavens and came down with dark clouds beneath His feet. 11He mounted a cherub and flew; He soared on the wings of the wind.
