Psalm 17:8-10

The Voice

⁸ Keep close watch over me as the apple of Your eye;
    shelter me in the shadow of Your wings.
⁹ Protect me from the wicked who are poised to attack,
    from the enemies swarming around me and closing in quickly.
¹⁰ Like clay baking in the sun, their hearts have hardened;
    arrogance spills from their mouths.
