4 As for the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have kept me from the ways of the violent.
         
                                
                        5 My steps have held fast to thy paths, My feet have not slipped.
         
                                
                        6 I have called upon thee, for thou wilt answer me, O God: Incline thine ear unto me, [and] hear my speech.
         
                                
                        7 Show thy marvellous lovingkindness, O thou that savest by thy right hand them that take refuge [in       thee ]From those that rise up [against them].
         
                                
                        8 Keep me as the apple of the eye; Hide me under the shadow of thy wings,
         
                                
                        9 From the wicked that oppress me, My deadly enemies, that compass me about.
         
                                
                        10 They are inclosed in their own fat: With their mouth they speak proudly.
