The verses around it, from Psalm 18.

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.

16 He reached down from on high and took hold of me; He drew me out of deep waters.

18 They confronted me in my day of calamity, but the LORD was my support.
