Psalms 17:9 in Context — Psalms 17

7 Signale ta bonté, toi qui sauves ceux qui cherchent un refuge, Et qui par ta droite les délivres de leurs adversaires!

8 Garde-moi comme la prunelle de l’œil; Protège-moi, à l’ombre de tes ailes,

9 Contre les méchants qui me persécutent, Contre mes ennemis acharnés qui m’enveloppent.

10 Ils ferment leurs entrailles, Ils ont à la bouche des paroles hautaines.

11 Ils sont sur nos pas, déjà ils nous entourent, Ils nous épient pour nous terrasser.
