The nations fell into the pit they had made; their feet were caught in the net they had hidden.
Let them present thank offerings, and loudly proclaim what he has done!
I will sing praises to the Lord when he vindicates me.
Now I am sure that the Lord will deliver his chosen king; he will intervene for him from his holy heavenly temple, and display his mighty ability to deliver.
Let destruction take them by surprise! Let the net they hid catch them! Let them fall into destruction!
Then I will rejoice in the Lord and be happy because of his deliverance.
Their swords will pierce their own hearts, and their bows will be broken.
They have prepared a net to trap me; I am discouraged. They have dug a pit for me. They will fall into it! (Selah)
He will pay them back for their sin. He will destroy them because of their evil; the Lord our God will destroy them.
The one who sows iniquity will reap trouble, and the rod of his fury will end.
The wicked will be captured by his own iniquities, and he will be held by the cords of his own sin.
