Contextual Overview
2 He said: " Adonai is my Rock, my fortress and deliverer, 3 the God who is my Rock, in whom I find shelter, my shield, the power that saves me, my stronghold and my refuge. My savior, you have saved me from violence. 4 I call on Adonai , who is worthy of praise; and I am saved from my enemies. 5 "For death's breakers were closing over me, the floods of B'liya‘al terrified me, 6 the ropes of Sh'ol were wrapped around me, the snares of death lay there before me. 7 In my distress I called to Adonai ; yes, I called to my God. Out of his temple he heard my voice, and my cry entered his ears. 8 "Then the earth quaked and shook, the foundations of heaven trembled. They were shaken because he was angry. 9 Smoke arose in his nostrils; and from his mouth, devouring fire, with coals blazing from it. 10 He lowered heaven and came down with thick darkness under his feet. 11 He rode on a keruv and flew, he was seen on the wings of the wind.
