Then the ocean floor could be seen. The foundations of the earth were laid bare at the LORD's stern warning, at the blast of the breath from his nostrils.
17
He reached down from high above and took hold of me. He pulled me out of the raging water.
18
He rescued me from my strong enemy and from those who hated me, because they were too strong for me.
19
On the day when I faced disaster, they confronted me, but the LORD became my defense.
20
He brought me out to a wide-open place. He rescued me because he was pleased with me.
