King James Version with Apocrypha
"From the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies, who compass me about."
— Psalms 17:9, King James Version with Apocrypha
“From the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies, who compass me about.”
“From the wicked that oppress me, My deadly enemies, that compass me about. ”
“from the wicked who oppress me, my deadly enemies, who surround me.”
“Protect me from the wicked men who attack me, my enemies who crowd around me for the kill.”
“There went up a smoke in his wrath: and a fire flamed from his face: coals were kindled by it.”
“From the evil-doers who are violent to me, and from those who are round me, desiring my death.”
I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine ear unto me, and hear my speech.
Shew thy marvellous lovingkindness, O thou that savest by thy right hand them which put their trust in thee from those that rise up against them.
Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings,
From the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies, who compass me about.
They are inclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak proudly.
They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth;
Like as a lion that is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.
