5The cords of death were round me, and the seas of evil put me in fear.
6The cords of hell were round me: the nets of death came on me.
7In my trouble my voice went up to the Lord, and my cry to my God: my voice came to his hearing in his holy Temple, and my prayer came before him, even into his ears.
8Then trouble and shock came on the earth; and the bases of the mountains were moved and shaking, because he was angry.
9There went up a smoke from his nose, and a fire of destruction from his mouth: flames were lighted by it.
10The heavens were bent, so that he might come down; and it was dark under his feet.
11And he went in flight through the air, seated on a storm-cloud: going quickly on the wings of the wind.
