'Shadow' in the Bible
Keep me as {the apple of your eye}. Hide me in the shadow of your wings
How precious [is] your loyal love, O God, and the children of humankind take refuge in the shadow of your wings.
Surely a man walks about as a [mere] {shadow}; surely in vain they bustle about. He heaps up [possessions] but does not know who [will] gather them [in].
But you have crushed us in a place of jackals, and have covered us with deep shadow.
Be gracious to me, O God, be gracious to me, because in you my soul takes refuge. In the shadow of your wings I will take refuge until destruction passes by.
Because you have been my help, therefore in the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy.
[One who] lives in the secret place of the Most High will lodge in the shadow of Shaddai.
My days [are] like a lengthened shadow, and I wither like grass.
Like a lengthening shadow I am passing away; I am shaken off like a locust.
Humankind is like a breath, his days like a passing shadow.
