The wicked walk on every side,
when what is vile is exalted among the sons of men.

I will now arise,” says the LORD;
“I will set him in safety from those who malign him.”

as silver refined in a clay furnace, purified seven times.

You will keep them, LORD.
You will preserve them from this generation forever.
