Psalms 17:9-14

9From the 1wickedH7563 who dealH7703 violentlyH7703 withH7703 me, My 2deadlyH5315 enemiesH340 who surroundH5362 me.10They have 3closedH5462 their 4unfeelingH2459 hearts, With their mouthsH6310 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 secretH4565 placesH4565.

1310AriseH6965, LordH3068, confrontH6923 him, 11makeH3766 him bowH3766 downH3766; 12SaveH6403 my soulH5315 from the wickedH7563 with 13Your swordH2719,14From peopleH4962 by 14Your handH3027, LordH3068, From peopleH4962 15of the worldH2465, 16whose portionH2506 is in this lifeH2425, And whose bellyH990 You 17fillH4390 with Your treasureH6840; They areH7646 satisfiedH7646 with childrenH1121, And leaveH5117 their abundanceH3499 to their babiesH5768.
