² and he saith: `Jehovah [is] my rock, And my bulwark, and a deliverer to me, ³ My God [is] my rock -- I take refuge in Him; My shield, and the horn of my salvation, My high tower, and my refuge! My Saviour, from violence Thou savest me! ⁴ The Praised One, I call Jehovah: And from mine enemies I am saved. ⁵ When the breakers of death compassed me, The streams of the worthless terrify me, ⁶ The cords of Sheol have surrounded me, Before me have been the snares of death. ⁷ In mine adversity I call Jehovah, And unto my God I call, And He heareth from His temple my voice, And my cry [is] in His ears, ⁸ And shake and tremble doth the earth, Foundations of the heavens are troubled, And are shaken, for He hath wrath! ⁹ Gone up hath smoke by His nostrils. And fire from His mouth devoureth, Brands have been kindled by it. ¹⁰ And He inclineth heaven, and cometh down, And thick darkness [is] under His feet. ¹¹ And He rideth on a cherub, and doth fly, And is seen on the wings of the wind.
