Psalm 18:2-4

International Standard Version

²The Lord is my rock, my fortress, my deliverer, my God,
my stronghold^[a] in whom I take refuge, my shield, the glory^[b]
of my salvation, and my high tower.”

³I cried out to the Lord, who is worthy to be praised,
and I was delivered from my enemies.

⁴The cords of death entangled me;
the rivers of Belial^[c] made me afraid.
