2 Samuel 22:9-21 Modern English Version (MEV)

9. Smoke rose from His nostrils,devouring fire from His mouth;coals blazed forth from Him.

10. He bowed the heaven as He came down,with thick darkness under His feet.

11. He rode upon a cherub as He flew,and appeared upon the wings of the wind.

12. He made darkness canopies around Him,dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.

13. From the brightness before Himembers of fire are kindled.

14. The Lord thundered from heaven,and the Most High uttered His voice.

15. He sent out arrows and dispersed them;with lightning He sent them into confusion.

16. The channels of the sea appeared,the foundations of the world were exposedwith the rebuke of the Lord,from the blast of breath from His nostrils.

17. He reached from on high and took me;He drew me out of mighty waters.

18. He rescued me from my strong enemy,from those who hate me;for they were stronger than I.

19. They confronted me in the day of my disaster,but the Lord was my support.

20. He brought me to the open expanse;He rescued me, for He delighted inme.

21. The Lord did for me according to my righteousness;according to the cleanness of my hands He recompensed me.
