Psalm 17:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 Like as a lion that is greedy of prey, and as it were a Lion’s whelp lurking in secret places.
13 Up Lord, [a]disappoint him: cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked [b]with thy sword,
14 From men by thine [c]hand, O Lord, from men [d]of the world, who have their [e]portion in this life, whose bellies thou fillest with thine hid treasure: their children have enough, and leave the rest of their substance for their children.

Psalm 17:12-14
New International Version
13 Rise up,(C) Lord, confront them, bring them down;(D)
with your sword rescue me from the wicked.
14 By your hand save me from such people, Lord,
from those of this world(E) whose reward is in this life.(F)
May what you have stored up for the wicked fill their bellies;
may their children gorge themselves on it,
and may there be leftovers(G) for their little ones.
