## 2 Samuel 22:13-16 in Context (Verses 10–19 KJV)
 
 [10 ](/kjv/2-samuel/22/10) He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness *was* under his feet.
 
 [11 ](/kjv/2-samuel/22/11) And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: and he was seen upon the wings of the wind.
 
 [12 ](/kjv/2-samuel/22/12) And he made darkness pavilions round about him, dark waters, *and* thick clouds of the skies.*
 
 [13 ](/kjv/2-samuel/22/13) Through the brightness before him were coals of fire kindled.
 
 [14 ](/kjv/2-samuel/22/14) The LORD thundered from heaven, and the most High uttered his voice.
 
 [15 ](/kjv/2-samuel/22/15) And he sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and discomfited them.
 
 [16 ](/kjv/2-samuel/22/16) And the channels of the sea appeared, the foundations of the world were discovered, at the rebuking of the LORD, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.
 
 [17 ](/kjv/2-samuel/22/17) He sent from above, he took me; he drew me out of many waters;*
 
 [18 ](/kjv/2-samuel/22/18) He delivered me from my strong enemy, *and* from them that hated me: for they were too strong for me.
 
 [19 ](/kjv/2-samuel/22/19) They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the LORD was my stay.
 
[2 Samuel 21](/kjv/2-samuel/21) [2 Samuel 23](/kjv/2-samuel/23)
