2 Samuel 22:3-5
Easy-to-Read Version

3     He is my God, the Rock I run to for protection.
He is my shield; by his power I am saved.[a]
    He is my hiding place, my place of safety, high in the hills.
He is my savior, the one
    who rescues me from the cruel enemy.
4 I called to the Lord for help,
    and he saved me from my enemies.
    He is worthy of my praise!

5 Waves of death were crashing around me.
    A deadly flood was carrying me away.
