Psalms 17:4-8

⁴Concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have kept from the paths of the violent man.

⁵When thou holdest my goings in thy paths, my footsteps slip not.

⁶I have called upon thee, for thou answerest me, O God. Incline thine ear unto me, hear my speech.

⁷Shew wondrously thy loving-kindnesses, O thou that savest by thy right hand them that trust in thee from those that rise up against them.

⁸Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings,
