5 Hold up my goings in thy paths, that my footsteps slip not.
6 I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear, O God, my speech, and incline thine ear unto me.
7 Show thy marvelous loving-kindness, O thou that savest them which put their trust in thee, by thy right hand from those that rise up.
8 Keep me as the apple of the eye. Hide me under the shadow of thy wings from the wicked that oppress me.
9 My deadly enemies compass me about;
10 They are enclosed in their own fat; with their mouth they speak proudly.
11 They have now compassed us in our steps; they have set their eyes, bowing down to the earth;
12 Like as a lion that is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.
13 Arise, O Lord, disappoint him, cast him down.
14 Deliver my soul from the wicked by thy sword; from men by thy strong hand. Yea, O Lord, from men of the world; for their portion is in their life, and whose belly thou fillest with thy good things; they are full of children, and they die and leave the rest of their inheritance to their babes.
15 As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness; I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.
