Psalm 17:9 in context

The verses around it, from Psalm 17.

5 My steps have held to Your paths; my feet have not slipped.

6 I call on You, O God, for You will answer me. Incline Your ear to me; hear my words.

7 Show the wonders of Your loving devotion, You who save by Your right hand those who seek refuge from their foes.

8 Keep me as the apple of Your eye; hide me in the shadow of Your wings

10 They have closed their callous hearts; their mouths speak with arrogance.

11 They have tracked us down, and now surround us; their eyes are set to cast us to the ground,

12 like a lion greedy for prey, like a young lion lurking in ambush.

13 Arise, O LORD, confront them! Bring them to their knees; deliver me from the wicked by Your sword,
