 USCCB - NAB - 2 Samuel 22
In the first part, after an introductory stanza of praise to God (2 Sam 22:2-4), David describes the peril he was in (2 Sam 22:5-7), and then poetically depicts, under the form of a theophany, God's intervention in his behalf (2 Sam 22:8-20), concluding with an acknowledgment of God's justice (2 Sam 22:21-31).
In the second part, God is praised for having prepared the psalmist for war (2 Sam 22:32-35), given him victory over his enemies (2 Sam 22:36-39), whom he put to flight (2 Sam 22:40-43), and bestowed on him dominion over many peoples (2 Sam 22:44-46).
[8-10] God's intervention is graphically portrayed under the figures of an earthquake (2 Sam 22:8, 16) and a thunderstorm (2 Sam 22:9-15); cf Judges 5:4-5; Psalm 29; Psalm 97:2-6; Hebrews 3.
