Psalms 17:9 in Context — Psalms 17

7 Muestra tus estupendas misericordias, tú que salvas á los que en ti confían de los que se levantan contra tu diestra.

8 Guárdame como lo negro de la niñeta del ojo, escóndeme con la sombra de tus alas,

9 De delante de los malos que me oprimen, de mis enemigos que me cercan por la vida.

10 Cerrados están con su grosura; con su boca hablan soberbiamente.

11 Nuestros pasos nos han cercado ahora: puestos tienen sus ojos para echar[nos] por tierra.
