Psalm 17:8-14
Keep me as the apple of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wingsfrom the wicked who are out to destroy me, from my mortal enemies who surround me.They close up their callous hearts, and their mouths speak with arrogance.They have tracked me down, they now surround me, with eyes alert, to throw me to the ground.They are like a lion hungry for prey, like a fierce lion crouching in cover.Rise up, Lord, confront them, bring them down; with your sword rescue me from the wicked.By your hand save me from such people, Lord, from those of this world whose reward is in this life. May what you have stored up for the wicked fill their bellies; may their children gorge themselves on it, and may there be leftovers for their little ones. (niv)
