Psalm 18:6 in context

The verses around it, from Psalm 18.

2 The LORD is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer. My God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.

3 I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised; so shall I be saved from my enemies.

4 The cords of death encompassed me; the torrents of chaos overwhelmed me.

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

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

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.
