In the Shadow of Your Wings

A fPrayer of David.

1Hear a just cause, O Lord; gattend to my cry!

Give ear to my prayer from lips free of deceit!

2From your presence hlet my vindication come!

Let your eyes behold the right!

3You have itried my heart, you have jvisited me by knight,

you have ltested me, and you will find nothing;

I have purposed that my mouth will not transgress.

4With regard to the works of man, by the word of your lips

I have avoided the ways of the violent.

5My steps have mheld fast to your paths;

my feet have not slipped.

6I ncall upon you, for you will answer me, O God;

oincline your ear to me; hear my words.

7pWondrously show1 your steadfast love,

O Savior of those who seek refuge

from qtheir adversaries at your right hand.

8Keep me as rthe apple of your eye;

hide me in sthe shadow of your wings,

9from the wicked who do me violence,

my deadly enemies who tsurround me.

10uThey close their hearts to pity;

with their mouths they vspeak arrogantly.

11They have now surrounded our wsteps;

they set their eyes to xcast us to the ground.

12He is like a lion eager to tear,

as a young lion ylurking in ambush.

13Arise, O Lord! Confront him, subdue him!

Deliver my soul from the wicked by your sword,

14from men by your hand, O Lord,

from zmen of the world whose aportion is in this life.2

You fill their womb with treasure;3

they are satisfied with bchildren,

and they leave their abundance to their infants.

15As for me, I shall cbehold your face in righteousness;

when I dawake, I shall be esatisfied with your likeness.
