Protect me as you would protect the pupil of your eye! Hide me in the shadow of your wings!
The psalmist has two requests: “Protect me” and “Hide me.”
(1) “Protect me as you would protect the pupil of your eye” and
(2) “Hide me in the shadow of your wings!”
“The LORD will keep you from all harm—he will watch over your life; the LORD will watch over your coming and going both now and for evermore” (Psalm 121:7-8 NIV).
