2 Samuel 22:5-7
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
5 The breakers of death surged round about me,
the menacing floods[a] terrified me;
6 The cords of Sheol tightened;
the snares of death lay in wait for me.
7 In my distress I called out: Lord!
I cried out to my God;
From his temple[b] he heard my voice,
my cry reached his ears.
