6 As for me, I call upon Thee, for Thou wilt answer me, O God; incline Thine ear unto me, hear my speech. 7 Make passing great Thy mercies, O Thou that savest by Thy right hand from assailants them that take refuge in Thee. 8 Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me in the shadow of Thy wings, 9 From the wicked that oppress, my deadly enemies, that compass me about.
