Protect me and deliver me! Please do not let me be humiliated, for I have taken shelter in you!
The Lord will protect you from all harm; he will protect your life.
May I hear about your loyal love in the morning, for I trust in you. Show me the way I should go, because I long for you.
Protect me as you would protect the pupil of your eye! Hide me in the shadow of your wings!
Protect me, for I am loyal! O my God, deliver your servant, who trusts in you!
