13 The Lord also thundered in the heavens, and the Highest gave his voice; hail stones and coals of fire.
13 The Lord thundered from heaven; the voice of the Most High resounded.
13 The Lord also thundered in the heavens, and the Most High uttered his voice, hailstones and coals of fire.
13 Then God thundered out of heaven; the High God gave a great shout, spraying hailstones and fireballs.
13 The Lord thundered from heaven, And the Most High uttered His voice, Hailstones and coals of fire.
13 The Lord thundered from heaven; the voice of the Most High resounded amid the hail and burning coals.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 18:13
Commentary on Psalm 18:1-19
(Read Psalm 18:1-19)
The first words, "I will love thee, O Lord, my strength," are the scope and contents of the psalm. Those that truly love God, may triumph in him as their Rock and Refuge, and may with confidence call upon him. It is good for us to observe all the circumstances of a mercy which magnify the power of God and his goodness to us in it. David was a praying man, and God was found a prayer-hearing God. If we pray as he did, we shall speed as he did. God's manifestation of his presence is very fully described, Hebrews 5:7. God made the earth to shake and tremble, and the rocks to cleave, and brought him out, in his resurrection, because he delighted in him and in his undertaking.
