Psalms 17:7-11

⁷Show thy marvellous lovingkindness, O thou that savest by thy right hand them that take refuge 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,

⁹From the wicked that oppress me, My deadly enemies, that compass me about.

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

¹¹They have now compassed us in our steps; They set their eyes to cast us down to the earth.
