6  ^aI call upon you, for you will answer me, O God;

incline your ear to me; hear my words.

7  ^bWondrously show¹ your steadfast love,

O Savior of those who seek refuge

from their adversaries at your right hand.

8  Keep me as ^cthe apple of your eye;

^dhide me in the shadow of your wings,

9  from the wicked who do me violence,

my deadly enemies who surround me.
