2 Samuel 22:7 in Context — 2 Samuel 22

5 Car les flots de la mort m’avaient environné, Les torrents de la destruction m’avaient épouvanté;

6 Les liens du sépulcre m’avaient entouré, Les filets de la mort m’avaient surpris.

7 Dans ma détresse, j’ai invoqué l’Éternel, J’ai invoqué mon Dieu; De son palais, il a entendu ma voix, Et mon cri est parvenu à ses oreilles.

8 La terre fut ébranlée et trembla, Les fondements des cieux frémirent, Et ils furent ébranlés, parce qu’il était irrité.

9 Il s’élevait de la fumée dans ses narines, Et un feu dévorant sortait de sa bouche: Il en jaillissait des charbons embrasés.
