King James Version

Psalms 17:12-14

12Like as a lion that is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.12

13Arise, O Lord, disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, which is thy sword:34

14From men which are thy hand, O Lord, from men of the world, which have their portion in this life, and whose belly thou fillest with thy hid treasure: they are full of children, and leave the rest of their substance to their babes.56
