⁹ from the presence^[a] of the wicked who destroy me,
those enemies against my life,
they that surround me.
¹⁰ They have shut off their calloused^[b] heart;

to pin^[d] me to the ground.
¹² He is like^[e] a lion; he longs to tear apart,

They are satisfied with children.
They bequeath their excess to their children.
