For my (A)eyes are toward You, O [a]God, the Lord;
In You I (B)take refuge; (C)do not [b]leave me defenseless.
Keep me from the [c](D)jaws of the trap which they have set for me,
And from the (E)snares of those who do iniquity.
10 Let the wicked (F)fall into their own nets,
While I pass by [d](G)safely.
