Psalms 17:5-8

⁵I have kept my feet in your ways, my steps have not been turned away.

⁶My cry has gone up to you, for you will give me an answer, O God: let your ear be turned to me, and give attention to my words.

⁷Make clear the wonder of your mercy, O saviour of those who put their faith in your right hand, from those who come out against them.

⁸Keep me as the light of your eyes, covering me with the shade of your wings,
