Psalm 18:1-5 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

1. I love you, Lord, my strength.

2. The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer;my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge,my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.

3. I called to the Lord, who is worthy of praise,and I have been saved from my enemies.

4. The cords of death entangled me;the torrents of destruction overwhelmed me.

5. The cords of the grave coiled around me;the snares of death confronted me.
