15 The nations have sunk into the pit they have made.
    Their feet are caught in the net they have hidden to trap others.
16 Yahweh is known by the judgment he has carried out.
    The wicked person is trapped
        by the work of his own hands. Higgaion Selah
17 Wicked people, all the nations who forget Elohim,
    will return to the grave.
