Tehillim 18:7-20 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

7. (8) Ha'aretz shook and trembled; the foundations also of the mountains quaked and were shaken, because He was angry.

8. (9) Smoke went up from His nostrils, and eish out of His mouth devoured; coals were kindled by it.

9. (10) He parted Shomayim, and descended, and dark clouds were under His feet.

10. (11) And He rode upon a keruv (cherub), and did fly; yea, He soared upon the wings of the ruach.

11. (12) He made choshech His secret place; His sukkah round about Him was dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.

12. (13) Out of the brightness that was before Him there broke through barad (hailstones) and coals of eish out of His clouds.

13. (14) Hashem also thundered in Shomayim, and Elyon gave His voice amid barad and coals of eish.

14. (15) Yea, He sent out His khitzim (arrows), and scattered them; and He shot out great lightning bolts, and did put them to rout.

15. (16) Then the channels of waters were exposed, and the foundations of the tevel (world) were laid bare at Thy rebuke, Hashem, at the blast of the ruach of Thy nostrils.

16. (17) He sent from on high, He took hold of me, He drew me out of mayim rabbim (many waters).

17. (18) He delivered me from my strong oyev, and from them which hated me; for they were too strong for me.

18. (19) They confronted me in the day of my calamity; but Hashem was my stay.

19. (20) He brought me forth also into a place merkhav (spacious); He delivered me, because He delighted in me.

20. (21) Hashem dealt with me according to my tzedek; according to the cleanness of my hands hath He recompensed me.
