Psalm 18:11 in context

The verses around it, from Psalm 18.

7 Then the earth shook and quaked, and the foundations of the mountains trembled; they were shaken because He burned with anger.

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

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

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

11 He made darkness His hiding place, and storm clouds a canopy around Him.

12 From the brightness of His presence His clouds advanced—hailstones and coals of fire.

13 The LORD thundered from heaven; the voice of the Most High resounded—hailstones and coals of fire.

14 He shot His arrows and scattered the foes; He hurled lightning and routed them.

15 The channels of the sea appeared, and the foundations of the world were exposed, at Your rebuke, O LORD, at the blast of the breath of Your nostrils.
