6 I have called upon You, for You, O God, will answer me;
Incline Your ear to me, hear my speech.
7 Wondrously show Your [marvelous and amazing] lovingkindness,
O Savior of those who take refuge at Your right hand
From those who rise up against them.
8 Keep me [in Your affectionate care, protect me] as the 17:8 Lit the pupil, the daughter of the eye.apple of Your eye;
Hide me in the [protective] shadow of Your wings
9 From the wicked who despoil and deal violently with me,
My deadly enemies who surround me.
