Psalms 16:5-9

⁵Direct my steps in thy paths, That my steps slip not.

⁶I have cried, for thou heardest me, O God: Incline thine ear to me, and hearken to my words.

⁷Show the marvels of thy mercies, Thou that savest them that hope in thee.

⁸Keep me as the apple of the eye From those that resist thy right hand: Thou shalt screen me by the covering of thy wings,

⁹From the face of the ungodly that have afflicted me: Mine enemies have compassed about my soul.
