Psalms 17:12
Berean Standard Bible
like a lion greedy for prey, like a young lion lurking in ambush.
Context
10They have closed their callous hearts;
their mouths speak with arrogance. 11They have tracked us down, and now surround us;
their eyes are set to cast us to the ground, 12like a lion greedy for prey,
like a young lion lurking in ambush. 13Arise, O LORD, confront them!
Bring them to their knees;
deliver me from the wicked by Your sword, 14from such men, O LORD, by Your hand—
from men of the world
whose portion is in this life.
May You fill the bellies of Your treasured ones * and satisfy their sons,
so they leave their abundance to their children.
