Bible verse
from such men, O LORD, by Your hand—from men of the world whose portion is in this life. May You fill the bellies of Your treasured ones and satisfy their sons, so they leave their abundance to their children.
Psalm 17:14 · BSB
The verses around it, from Psalm 17.
10 They have closed their callous hearts; their mouths speak with arrogance.
11 They have tracked us down, and now surround us; their eyes are set to cast us to the ground,
12 like a lion greedy for prey, like a young lion lurking in ambush.
13 Arise, O LORD, confront them! Bring them to their knees; deliver me from the wicked by Your sword,
14 from such men, O LORD, by Your hand—from men of the world whose portion is in this life. May You fill the bellies of Your treasured ones and satisfy their sons, so they leave their abundance to their children.
15 As for me, I will behold Your face in righteousness; when I awake, I will be satisfied in Your presence.
