Psalms 9:12-17

¹²He does not forget to punish murderers; he does not ignore the cries of the suffering.

¹³Be gracious to me, Lord! Look at how my enemies are persecuting me! Grab me back from the gates of death,

¹⁴so I can praise you at Zion's gates, happy that you have saved me.

¹⁵The nations have fallen into their own pit they dug; their feet are trapped by their own net they set.

¹⁶The Lord is known for his fairness; the wicked are trapped by their own actions. Higgaion. Selah.

¹⁷The wicked depart, going to the grave—all nations who turn their backs on God.
