Contextual Overview

2 Our Lord and our God, you are my mighty rock, my fortress, my protector. 3 You are the rock where I am safe. You are my shield, my powerful weapon, and my place of shelter. You rescue me and keep me from being hurt. 4 I praise you, our Lord ! I prayed to you, and you rescued me from my enemies. 5 Death, like ocean waves, surrounded me, and I was almost swallowed by its flooding waters. 6 Ropes from the world of the dead had coiled around me, and death had set a trap in my path. 7 I was in terrible trouble when I called out to you, but from your temple you heard me and answered my prayer. 8 Earth shook and shivered! The columns supporting the sky rocked back and forth. You were angry 9 and breathed out smoke. Scorching heat and fiery flames spewed from your mouth. 10 You opened the heavens like curtains, and you came down with storm clouds under your feet. 11 You rode on the backs of flying creatures. You appeared with the wind as wings.
