Psalms 17:12KJV
Protestant Bible · KJV · Verse 12 of 15
"Like as a lion is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places."
In context
10They are inclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak proudly.
11They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth;
12Like as a lion is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.
13Arise, O LORD, disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, thy sword:
14From men thy hand, O LORD, from men of the world, their portion in life, and whose belly thou fillest with thy hid : they are full of children, and leave the rest of their to their babes.
