11. He made darkness his hiding place, his pavilion around him, darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.
12. At the brightness before him his thick clouds passed, hailstones and coals of fire.
13. Yahweh also thundered in the sky. The Most High uttered his voice: hailstones and coals of fire.
14. He sent out his arrows, and scattered them; Yes, great lightning bolts, and routed them.
15. Then the channels of waters appeared. The foundations of the world were laid bare at your rebuke, Yahweh, at the blast of the breath of your nostrils.
16. He sent from on high. He took me. He drew me out of many waters.
17. He delivered me from my strong enemy, from those who hated me; for they were too mighty for me.
18. They came on me in the day of my calamity, but Yahweh was my support.
19. He brought me out also into a large place. He delivered me, because he delighted in me.
20. Yahweh has rewarded me according to my righteousness. According to the cleanness of my hands has he recompensed me.
21. For I have kept the ways of Yahweh, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
22. For all his ordinances were before me. I didn’t put away his statutes from me.
23. I was also blameless with him. I kept myself from my iniquity.
24. Therefore Yahweh has rewarded me according to my righteousness, according to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.
