10:022:007 In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried to my God: and he did hear my voice out of his temple, and my cry did enter into his ears.
10:022:008 Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations of heaven moved and shook, because he was wroth.
10:022:009 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.
10:022:010 He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness was under his feet.
10:022:011 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: and he was seen upon the wings of the wind.
10:022:012 And he made darkness pavilions round about him, dark waters, and thick clouds of the skies.
10:022:013 Through the brightness before him were coals of fire kindled.
10:022:014 The LORD thundered from heaven, and the most High uttered his voice.
10:022:015 And he sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and discomfited them.
10:022:016 And the channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were discovered, at the rebuking of the LORD, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.
10:022:017 He sent from above, he took me; he drew me out of many waters;
10:022:018 He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them that hated me: for they were too strong for me.
10:022:019 They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the LORD was my stay.
10:022:020 He brought me forth also into a large place: he delivered me, because he delighted in me.
10:022:021 The LORD rewarded me according to my righteousness: according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me.
10:022:022 For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed from my God.
10:022:023 For all his judgments were before me: and as for his statutes, I did not depart from them.
10:022:024 I was also upright before him, and have kept myself from mine iniquity.
10:022:025 Therefore the LORD hath recompensed me according to my righteousness; according to my cleanness in his eye sight.
10:022:026 With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful, and with the upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright.
10:022:027 With the pure thou wilt shew thyself pure; and with the froward thou wilt shew thyself unsavoury.
10:022:028 And the afflicted people thou wilt save: but thine eyes are upon the haughty, that thou mayest bring them down.
10:022:029 For thou art my lamp, O LORD: and the LORD will lighten my darkness.
10:022:030 For by thee I have run through a troop: by my God have I leaped over a wall.
10:022:031 As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him.
10:022:032 For who is God, save the LORD? and who is a rock, save our God?
10:022:033 God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect.
10:022:034 He maketh my feet like hinds' feet: and setteth me upon my high places.
