2 Samuel 22:6 In-Context

4 I will call on the LORD, [who is] worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from my enemies.

5 When the waves of death compassed me, the floods of ungodly-men made me afraid;

6 The sorrows of hell encompassed me; the snares of death seized me;

7 In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried to my God: and he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry [entered] into his ears.

8 Then the earth shook and trembled: the foundations of heaven moved and shook, because he was wroth.
