Psalms 17:4-11 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

4. As for the deeds of men, by the word of Your lips I have kept from the paths of the violent.

5. My steps have held fast to Your paths. My feet have not slipped.

6. I have called upon You, for You will answer me, O God; Incline Your ear to me, hear my speech.

7. Wondrously show Your lovingkindness, O Savior of those who take refuge at Your right hand From those who rise up against them.

8. Keep me as the apple of the eye; Hide me in the shadow of Your wings

9. From the wicked who despoil me, My deadly enemies who surround me.

10. They have closed their unfeeling heart, With their mouth they speak proudly.

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