This continues David's song to Yahweh. He uses parallelism to emphasize what he is saying. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-parallelism]])

## out of the surging water ##

David compares his enemies to a flood that threatens to drown him. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

## He rescued me from my strong enemy ##

David's enemies were overwhelming. He praises God for delivering him from all his enemies.
