2 Samuel 22:6 in Context — 2 Samuel 22

4 Invocarei ao SENHOR, digno de ser louvado. E serei salvo de meus inimigos.

5 Quando me cercaram ondas de morte, E ribeiros de iniquidade me assombraram,

6 As cordas do Xeol me rodearam, e laços de morte me tomaram desprevenido.

7 Tive angústia, invoquei ao SENHOR, E clamei a meu Deus: E ele ouviu minha voz desde seu templo; Chegou meu clamor a seus ouvidos.

8 A terra se moveu, e tremeu; Os fundamentos dos céus foram movidos, E se estremeceram, porque ele se irou.
