²He said:
The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer,
³   my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge,
my shield and the horn of my salvation,
   my stronghold and my refuge,
   my saviour; you save me from violence.
⁴ I call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised,
   and I am saved from my enemies.

⁵ For the waves of death encompassed me,
   the torrents of perdition assailed me;
⁶ the cords of Sheol entangled me,
   the snares of death confronted me.

⁷ In my distress I called upon the Lord;
   to my God I called.
From his temple he heard my voice,
   and my cry came to his ears.

⁸ Then the earth reeled and rocked;
   the foundations of the heavens trembled
   and quaked, because he was angry.
