Psalm 17:12-14

International Standard Version

¹²Like a lion they desire to rip us to pieces,
like a young lion waiting in ambush.

¹³Arise, Lord,
    confront them,
        bring them to their knees!
Deliver me from the wicked by your sword—
¹⁴from men, Lord, by your hand—
from men who belong to this world,
    whose reward is only^[a] in this^[b] life.

But as for your treasured ones,
may their stomachs be full,
may their children have an abundance,
and may they leave wealth to their offspring.
