Psalms 17:12


Psalms 17:11 Psalms 17:12 (KJV) Psalms 17:13
They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth;
Like as a lion [that] is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.
Arise, O LORD, disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, [which is] thy sword:
