13 He has prepared deadly weapons to use against him; he gets ready to shoot flaming arrows. 14 See the one who is pregnant with wickedness, who conceives destructive plans, and gives birth to harmful lies— 15 he digs a pit and then falls into the hole he has made. 16 He becomes the victim of his own destructive plans— and the violence he intended for others falls on his own head. 17 I will thank the Lord for his justice;I will sing praises to the Lord Most High!

4 I am surrounded by lions; I lie down among those who want to devour me, men whose teeth are spears and arrows, whose tongues are sharp swords. 5 Rise up above the sky, O God. May your splendor cover the whole earth. 6 They have prepared a net to trap me; I am discouraged. They have dug a pit for me. They will fall into it. (Selah) 7 I am determined, O God. I am determined. I will sing and praise you. 8 Awake, my soul! Awake, O stringed instrument and harp! I will wake up at dawn.
