8Keep me as the apple of your eye; Hide me under the shadow of your wings,
9From the wicked who oppress me, My deadly enemies, who compass me about.
10They close up their callous hearts. With their mouth they speak proudly.
11They have now surrounded us in our steps. They set their eyes to cast us down to the earth.
12He is like a lion that is greedy of his prey, As it were a young lion lurking in secret places.
13Arise, Yahweh, Confront him, cast him down. Deliver my soul from the wicked by your sword;
14From men by your hand, Yahweh, From men of the world, whose portion is in this life, Whose belly you fill with your treasure: They are satisfied with children, Leave the rest of their substance to their babes.
