2 Samuel 22:18 In-Context

16 And the sheddings out of the sea appeared, and the foundaments of the world were showed; from the blaming of the Lord, from the breathing of the spirit of his strong vengeance. (And the seabed appeared, and the foundations of the world were uncovered; at the Lord's rebuke, and at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.)

17 He sent from heaven, and took (hold of) me; and drew me out of many waters.

18 He delivered me from my mightiest enemy, and from them that hated me; for they were stronger than I.

19 They came before me in the day of my tormenting; and the Lord was made my steadfastness.

20 And he led me out into largeness, and he delivered me; for I pleased him. (And he led me out into a large place, and he saved me; because he delighted in me.)
