12 He is like a lion eager to tear,
    as a young lion (A)lurking in ambush.

13 Arise, O Lord! Confront him, subdue him!
    Deliver my soul from the wicked by your sword,
14 from men by your hand, O Lord,
    from (B)men of the world whose (C)portion is in this life.[a]
You fill their womb with treasure;[b]
    they are satisfied with (D)children,
    and they leave their abundance to their infants.
