Psalms 17:8-14
Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings,From the wicked that oppress me,[ from] my deadly enemies,[ who] compass me about.They are inclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak proudly.They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth;Like as a lion[ that] is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.Arise, O LORD, disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked,[ which is] thy sword:From men[ which are] thy hand, O LORD, from men of the world,[ which have] their portion in[ this] life, and whose belly thou fillest with thy hid[ treasure]: they are full of children, and leave the rest of their[ substance] to their babes.

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?[ shall] tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
