Psalms 17:7-13 Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650)

7. Thy wondrous loving-kindness show,thou that, by thy right hand,Sav'st them that trust in thee from thosethat up against them stand.

8. As th' apple of the eye me keep;in thy wings shade me close

9. From lewd oppressors, compassingme round, as deadly foes.

10. In their own fat they are inclos'd;their mouth speaks loftily.

11. Our steps they compass'd; and to grounddown bowing set their eye.

12. He like unto a lion isthat's greedy of his prey,Or lion young, which lurking dothin secret places stay.

13. Arise, and disappoint my foe,and cast him down,O Lord: My soul save from the wicked man,the man which is thy sword.
