2 Samuel 22:9 in context

The verses around it, from 2 Samuel 22.

5 For the waves of death engulfed me; the torrents of chaos overwhelmed me.

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

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

8 Then the earth shook and quaked; the foundations of the heavens trembled; they were shaken because He burned with anger.

9 Smoke rose from His nostrils, and consuming fire came from His mouth; glowing coals blazed forth.

10 He parted the heavens and came down with dark clouds beneath His feet.

11 He mounted a cherub and flew; He soared on the wings of the wind.

12 He made darkness a canopy around Him, a gathering of water and thick clouds.

13 From the brightness of His presence coals of fire blazed forth.
