Psalms 18:4 in Context — Psalms 18

2 Jehová, roca mía y castillo mío, y mi libertador; Dios mío, fuerte mío, en él confiaré; escudo mío, y el cuerno de mi salud, mi refugio.

3 Invocaré á Jehová, digno de ser alabado, y seré salvo de mis enemigos.

4 Cercáronme dolores de muerte, y torrentes de perversidad me atemorizaron.

5 Dolores del sepulcro me rodearon, previniéronme lazos de muerte.

6 En mi angustia invoqué á Jehová, y clamé á mi Dios: él oyó mi voz desde su templo, y mi clamor llegó delante de él, á sus oídos.
