Pursuer

And from the daughter of Zion all her beauty is departed: her princes are become like harts that find no pasture, and they are gone without strength before the pursuer.

• Bold
• Character
• Fearful

The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.

Let their way be dark and slippery: and let the angel of the LORD persecute them.

And she said unto them, Get you to the mountain, lest the pursuers meet you; and hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers be returned: and afterward may ye go your way.

Our persecutors are swifter than the eagles of the heaven: they pursued us upon the mountains, they laid wait for us in the wilderness.

Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that persecute me: say unto my soul, I am thy salvation.

{Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto the LORD, concerning the words of Cush the Benjamite.} O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me:

For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
