16 From the (A)ends of the earth we hear songs: “(B)Glory to the Righteous One,”
But I say, “[a]I am finished! I am finished! Woe to me!
The (C)treacherous deal treacherously,
And the treacherous deal very treacherously.”
17 (D)Terror and pit and snare
[b]Confront you, you inhabitant of the earth.
18 Then it will be that the one who flees the sound of terror will fall into the pit,
And the one who [c]climbs out of the pit will be caught in the snare;
For the (E)windows [d]above are opened, and the (F)foundations of the earth shake.
