"In the hollow of your hand" = trong lòng bàn tay -> nghĩa là thuộc hoàn toàn sự kiểm soát (của ai); thường được dùng trong lời chúc "Cầu Chúa giữ bạn trong hõm tay của Ngài".

Ví dụ 
At this point in history, these four men held the entirety (toàn bộ) of Europe in the hollow of their hands.

"Is love the only thing?" she asked in low, sweet tones that seemed to bring a calm even to my wrung (quặn thắt) heart. “If love were the only thing I could follow you — in rags, if need to the world’s end; for you hold my heart in the hollow of your hand! But is love the only thing? I made her no answer. It gives me shame (xấu hổ) now to think that would not help hers.

"Icicles (mụn nước) forming from your eyes
Snowed in, you've trapped yourself inside
Frost (sương) forms in the hollow of your hand
Buried (chôn vùi) with your hate (nỗi hận) as you despair (tuyệt vọng)" - Lyrics of "In the hollow of your hand" song.
