8. “Is this the one who relies on the lord?Then let the lord save him!If the lord loves him so much,let the lord rescue him!”
9. Yet you brought me safely from my mother’s womband led me to trust you at my mother’s breast.
10. I was thrust into your arms at my birth.You have been my God from the moment I was born.
11. Do not stay so far from me,for trouble is near,and no one else can help me.
12. My enemies surround me like a herd of bulls;fierce bulls of Bashan have hemmed me in!
