9. He parted the heavens and came down;dark clouds were under his feet.
10. He mounted the cherubim and flew;he soared on the wings of the wind.
11. He made darkness his covering, his canopy around him –the dark rain clouds of the sky.
12. Out of the brightness of his presence clouds advanced,with hailstones and bolts of lightning.
13. The Lord thundered from heaven;the voice of the Most High resounded.
14. He shot his arrows and scattered the enemy,with great bolts of lightning he routed them.
15. The valleys of the sea were exposedand the foundations of the earth laid bareat your rebuke, Lord,at the blast of breath from your nostrils.
16. He reached down from on high and took hold of me;he drew me out of deep waters.
17. He rescued me from my powerful enemy,from my foes, who were too strong for me.
18. They confronted me in the day of my disaster,but the Lord was my support.
19. He brought me out into a spacious place;he rescued me because he delighted in me.
20. The Lord has dealt with me according to my righteousness;according to the cleanness of my hands he has rewarded me.
21. For I have kept the ways of the Lord;I am not guilty of turning from my God.
