Psalm 141:10

Let the wicked fall into their own nets,
While I pass by safely.

Let destruction come upon him unawares,
And let the net which he hid catch himself;
Into that very destruction let him fall.

So they hanged Haman on the gallows which he had prepared for Mordecai, and the king’s anger subsided.

He has dug a pit and hollowed it out,
And has fallen into the hole which he made.

The wicked have drawn the sword and bent their bow
To cast down the afflicted and the needy,
To slay those who are upright in conduct.

But God will shoot at them with an arrow;
Suddenly they will be wounded.

“As for the head of those who surround me,
May the mischief of their lips cover them.

The righteous is delivered from trouble,
But the wicked takes his place.

Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst that I withal escape.

And has fallen into the hole which he made.

Let destruction come upon him unawares,
And let the net which he hid catch himself;
Into that very destruction let him fall.

The wicked have drawn the sword and bent their bow
To cast down the afflicted and the needy,
