In context
10They have enclosed themselves with their own fat: Their mouth has spoken pride.
11They have now cast me out and compassed me round about: They have set their eyes so as to bow them down to the ground.
— Psalms 16:12 —
13Arise, O Lord, prevent them, and cast them down: Deliver my soul from the ungodly: Draw thy sword,
14because of the enemies of thy hand: O Lord, destroy them from the earth; Scatter them in their life, Though their belly has been filled with thy hidden treasures: They have been satisfied with uncleanness, And have left the remnant of their possessions to their babes.
