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

He lurks in a hiding place as a lion in his lair;
He lurks to catch the afflicted;
He catches the afflicted when he draws him into his net.

You have seen it, for You have beheld mischief and vexation to take it into Your hand.
The unfortunate commits himself to You;
You have been the helper of the orphan.

In my distress I called upon the Lord,
And cried to my God for help;
He heard my voice out of His temple,
And my cry for help before Him came into His ears.

He brought me forth also into a broad place;
He rescued me, because He delighted in me.

Who may ascend into the hill of the Lord?
And who may stand in His holy place?

You have turned for me my mourning into dancing;
You have loosed my sackcloth and girded me with gladness,

Into Your hand I commit my spirit;
You have ransomed me, O Lord, God of truth.

And You have not given me over into the hand of the enemy;
You have set my feet in a large place.

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

For Your arrows have sunk deep into me,
And Your hand has pressed down on me.

How blessed is the man who has made the Lord his trust,
And has not turned to the proud, nor to those who lapse into falsehood.

For our soul has sunk down into the dust;
Our body cleaves to the earth.

They will be led forth with gladness and rejoicing;
They will enter into the King’s palace.

Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change
And though the mountains slip into the heart of the sea;

They have prepared a net for my steps;
My soul is bowed down;
They dug a pit before me;
They themselves have fallen into the midst of it. Selah.

Who will bring me into the besieged city?
Who will lead me to Edom?

But those who seek my life to destroy it,
Will go into the depths of the earth.

He turned the sea into dry land;
They passed through the river on foot;
There let us rejoice in Him!

You brought us into the net;
You laid an oppressive burden upon our loins.

You made men ride over our heads;
We went through fire and through water,
Yet You brought us out into a place of abundance.

I shall come into Your house with burnt offerings;
I shall pay You my vows,

God makes a home for the lonely;
He leads out the prisoners into prosperity,
Only the rebellious dwell in a parched land.

They have seen Your procession, O God,
The procession of my God, my King, into the sanctuary.

I have sunk in deep mire, and there is no foothold;
I have come into deep waters, and a flood overflows me.

Add iniquity to their iniquity,
And may they not come into Your righteousness.

Until I came into the sanctuary of God;
Then I perceived their end.

The stouthearted were plundered,
They sank into sleep;
And none of the warriors could use his hands.

At Your rebuke, O God of Jacob,
Both rider and horse were cast into a dead sleep.

And gave up His strength to captivity
And His glory into the hand of the adversary.

And return to our neighbors sevenfold into their bosom
The reproach with which they have reproached You, O Lord.

Righteousness will go before Him
And will make His footsteps into a way.

You turn man back into dust
And say, “Return, O children of men.”

“Therefore I swore in My anger,
Truly they shall not enter into My rest.”

Ascribe to the Lord the glory of His name;
Bring an offering and come into His courts.

Israel also came into Egypt;
Thus Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.

He turned their waters into blood
And caused their fish to die.

Then He gave them into the hand of the nations,
And those who hated them ruled over them.

He changes rivers into a wilderness
And springs of water into a thirsty ground;

A fruitful land into a salt waste,
Because of the wickedness of those who dwell in it.

He changes a wilderness into a pool of water
And a dry land into springs of water;

Who will bring me into the besieged city?
Who will lead me to Edom?

But he clothed himself with cursing as with his garment,
And it entered into his body like water
And like oil into his bones.

Who turned the rock into a pool of water,
The flint into a fountain of water.

The dead do not praise the Lord,
Nor do any who go down into silence;

Let us go into His dwelling place;
Let us worship at His footstool.

He sent signs and wonders into your midst, O Egypt,
Upon Pharaoh and all his servants.

“May burning coals fall upon them;
May they be cast into the fire,
Into deep pits from which they cannot rise.

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

And do not enter into judgment with Your servant,
For in Your sight no man living is righteous.
