14 Then I will praise you for everyone to hear!
    I will tell the people of Zion that you have saved me,
    and I will be very happy!
15 Into the deep hole that they dug,
    the nations themselves fell.
The net that they hid to catch me,
    caught their own feet!
16 The Lord has shown us who he is.
    We know that he brings justice.
Wicked people will catch themselves
    in their own traps.
Higgaion.[a] Selah.
