New Testament

Psalms 17:10-14 God's Word Translation (GW)

10. They have shut out all feeling.Their mouths have spoken arrogantly.

11. They have tracked me down.They have surrounded me.They have focused their attention on throwing me to the ground.

12. Each one of them is like a lion eager to tear ⌊its prey⌋ apartand like a young lion crouching in hiding places.

13. Arise, O Lord; confront them!Bring them to their knees!With your sword rescue my life from wicked people.

14. With your power rescue me from mortals, O Lord,from mortals who enjoy their inheritance only in this life.You fill their bellies with your treasure.Their children are satisfied ⌊with it⌋,and they leave what remains to their children.
