Psalms 17:9-14

9From the 1wickedH7563 who despoilH7703 me, My 2deadlyH5315 enemiesH340 who surroundH5362 me.10They have 3closedH5462 their 4unfeelingH2459 heart, With their mouthH6310 they 5speakH1696 proudlyH1348.11They have nowH6258 6surroundedH5437 us in our stepsH838; They setH7896 their eyesH5869 7to castH5186 us downH5186 to the groundH776.12He is 8likeH1825 a lionH743 that is eagerH3700 to tearH2963, And as a youngH3715 lionH3715 9lurkingH3427 in hidingH4565 placesH4565.

1310AriseH6965, O LordH3068, confrontH6923 him, 11bringH3766 him lowH3766; 12DeliverH6403 my soulH5315 from the wickedH7563 with 13Your swordH2719,14From menH4962 with 14Your handH3027, O LordH3068, From menH4962 15of the worldH2465, 16whose portionH2506 is in this lifeH2425, And whose bellyH990 You 17fillH4390 with Your treasureH6840; They are satisfiedH7646 with childrenH1121, And leaveH5117 their abundanceH3499 to their babesH5768.
