6 I have called on you, for you will answer me, God.

Turn your ear to me.

Hear my speech.

7 Show your marvellous loving kindness,

you who save those who take refuge by your right hand from their enemies.

8 Keep me as the apple of your eye.

Hide me under the shadow of your wings,

9 from the wicked who oppress me,

my deadly enemies, who surround me.
