Psalms 17:12-15

¹²They are like lions, longing to tear their prey apart; like fierce lions crouching in ambush.

¹³Lord, stand up and confront them! Force them to back down! By your sword rescue me from the wicked!

¹⁴Lord, by your power, save me from people whose only thought is for this world. May they be filled with what you have in store for them, their children too, with left-overs for their grandchildren!

¹⁵As for me, I shall see your face in all its goodness. When I awake, I will be so pleased to see you face to face.
