'Shadow' in the Bible
Keep me as the apple, the daughter of the eye; In shadow of Thy wings thou dost hide me.
How precious is Thy kindness, O God, And the sons of men In the shadow of Thy wings do trust.
To the Overseer. -- 'Destroy not.' -- A secret treasure of David, in his fleeing from the face of Saul into a cave. Favour me, O God, favour me, For in Thee is my soul trusting, And in the shadow of Thy wings I trust, Until the calamities pass over.
For Thou hast been a help to me, And in the shadow of Thy wings I sing.
Covered have been hills with its shadow, And its boughs are cedars of God.
My days as a shadow are stretched out, And I -- as the herb I am withered.
As a shadow when it is stretched out I have gone, I have been driven away as a locust.
Man to vanity hath been like, His days are as a shadow passing by.
