New Testament

2 Samuel 22:10-22 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

10. He tore open the sky and came down.Dark clouds were under his feet.

11. He rode a creature with wings and flew.He flew on the wings of the wind.

12. He made darkness his shelter around him,surrounded by fog and clouds.

13. Out of the brightness of his presencecame flashes of lightning.

14. The Lord thundered from heaven.The Most High God raised his voice.

15. He shot his arrows and scattered his enemies.His bolts of lightning confused them with fear.

16. The Lord spoke strongly.The wind blew from his nose.The valleys of the sea appeared.The foundations of the earth were seen.

17. “The Lord reached down from above and took me.He pulled me from the deep water.

18. He saved me from my powerful enemies.Those who hated me were too strong for me.

19. They attacked me at my time of trouble.But the Lord supported me.

20. He took me to a safe place.Because he delights in me, he saved me.

21. “The Lord spared me because I did what was right.Because I have not done evil, he has rescued me.

22. I have followed the ways of the Lord.I have not done evil by turning from my God.
