7. Manifest your faithful love in amazing waysbecause you are the onewho saves those who take refuge in you,saving them from their attackersby your strong hand.
8. Watch me with the very pupil of your eye!Hide me in the protection of your wings,
9. away from the wickedwho are out to get me,away from my deadly enemieswho are all around me!
10. They have no pity;their mouths speak arrogantly.
11. They track me down—suddenly, they surround me!They make their plans to put me in the dirt.
12. They are like a lion eager to rip its prey;they are like a strong young lion lying in wait.
13. Get up, Lord!Confront them!Bring them down!Rescue my life from the wicked—use your sword!
