Psalms 17:6-10

⁶I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thy ear to me, and hear my speech.

⁷Show thy wonderful loving-kindness, O thou that savest by thy right hand them who put their trust in thee from those that rise up against them .

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

⁹From the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies, who encompass me,

¹⁰They are inclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak proudly.
