Psalm 141:10

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

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

He made a pit, and dug it, and has fallen into the ditch which he made.

Let destruction come upon him unawares; and let his net that he has hid catch himself: into that very destruction let him fall.

The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright behavior.

But God shall shoot at them with an arrow; suddenly shall they be wounded.

As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.

So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king's wrath abated.

The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked comes in his stead.
