Psalms 17:13 in Context — Psalms 17

11 Nuestros pasos nos han cercado ahora: puestos tienen sus ojos para echar[nos] por tierra.

12 Parecen al león que desea hacer presa, y al leoncillo que está escondido.

13 Levántate, oh Jehová; prevén su encuentro, póstrale: libra mi alma del malo con tu espada;

14 De los hombres con tu mano, oh Jehová, de los hombres de mundo, cuya parte es en [esta] vida, y cuyo vientre hinches de tu tesoro: hartan [sus] hijos, y dejan el resto á sus chiquitos.

15 Yo en justicia veré tu rostro: seré saciado cuando despertare á tu semejanza.
