Psalms 18:5

³ I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised; so shall I be saved from my enemies.

⁴ The cords of death encompassed me; the torrents of chaos overwhelmed me.

The cords of Sheol entangled me; the snares of death confronted me.

⁶ In my distress I called upon the LORD; I cried to my God for help. From His temple He heard my voice, and my cry for His help reached His ears.

⁷ Then the earth shook and quaked, and the foundations of the mountains trembled; they were shaken because He burned with anger.
