For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about: for their sakes therefore return thou on high.

From the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies, who compass me about.

I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O LORD:

Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah.

Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy shall compass him about.

Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of my heels shall compass me about?

As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.

Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise thy name: the righteous shall compass me about; for thou shalt deal bountifully with me.
