8Keep me as the apple of the eye, Hide me under the shadow of thy wings,
9From the wicked that oppress me, From my deadly enemies, who 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 have set their eyes bowing down to the earth;
12Like as a lion that is greedy of his prey, And as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.
Psalms 17
Psalms 17:8-12
