Psalm 17:14-15
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
14 from mortals—by your hand, O Lord—
from mortals whose portion in life is in this world.
May their bellies be filled with what you have stored up for them;
may their children have more than enough;
may they leave something over to their little ones.(A)
15 As for me, I shall behold your face in righteousness;
when I awake I shall be satisfied, beholding your likeness.(B)
Psalm 17:14-15
King James Version
14 From men which are thy hand, O Lord, from men of the world, which have their portion in this life, and whose belly thou fillest with thy hid treasure: they are full of children, and leave the rest of their substance to their babes.
15 As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.
