Psalm 9:15-17
Common English Bible

15 The nations have fallen
    into the hole they themselves made!
    Their feet are caught
        in the very net they themselves hid!
16 The Lord is famous for the justice he has done;
    it’s his own doing that the wicked are trapped. Higgayon.[a] Selah

17 Let the wicked go straight to the grave,[b]
    the same for every nation that forgets God.
