Psalms 17:10-15

¹⁰They shut up their hard heart; With their mouth they speak haughtily.

¹¹They encompass us in all our steps; They fix their eyes upon us, that they may cast us on the ground.

¹²They are like a lion, eager for his prey; Like a young lion, lurking in secret places.

¹³Arise, O LORD! disappoint them, cast them down! Deliver me from the wicked by thy sword,

¹⁴From men, by thy hand, O LORD! from men of the world, Whose portion is in life; whom thou loadest with thy treasure; Whose children have enough, and leave their superfluity to their children.

¹⁵But I through righteousness shall see thy face; I shall be satisfied with the revival of thy countenance.
