Contextual Overview

² and he said, Yahweh is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer, even mine; ³ God, my rock, in him I will take refuge; My shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge; My savior, you save me from violence. ⁴ I will call on Yahweh, who is worthy to be praised: So I shall be saved from my enemies. ⁵ For the waves of death compassed me; The floods of ungodliness made me afraid: ⁶ The cords of Sheol were round about me; The snares of death came on me. ⁷ In my distress I called on Yahweh; Yes, I called to my God: And he heard my voice out of his temple, And my cry [came] into his ears. ⁸ Then the earth shook and trembled, The foundations of heaven quaked And were shaken, because he was angry. ⁹ There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, And fire out of his mouth devoured: Coals were kindled by it. ¹⁰ He bowed the heavens also, and came down; And thick darkness was under his feet. ¹¹ And he rode on a cherub, and flew; Yes, he was seen on the wings of the wind.
