7 Ref Separate wonderfully Thy kindness, O Saviour of the confiding, By Thy right hand, from withstanders.

8 Ref Keep me as the apple, the daughter of the eye; In shadow of Thy wings thou dost hide me.

9 Ref From the face of the wicked who spoiled me. Mine enemies in soul go round against me.

10 Ref Their fat they have closed up, Their mouths have spoken with pride:
