Malice » Brings its own punishment
He dug a pit and hollowed it out, but fell into the hole he had made. His trouble comes back on his own head, and his violence falls on the top of his head.
Pit » Figurative
I was despondent.
They dug a pit ahead of me,
but they fell into it!
will fall into his own pit,
but the blameless will inherit what is good.
out of the muddy clay,
and set my feet on a rock,
making my steps secure.
and a stranger is a narrow well;
and the one who breaks through a wall may be bitten by a snake.
He dug a pit and hollowed it out, but fell into the hole he had made. His trouble comes back on his own head, and his violence falls on the top of his head.
or the deep swallow me up;
don’t let the Pit close its mouth over me.
they violate Your instruction.
and whoever rolls a stone—
it will come back on him.
and he who climbs from the pit
will be captured in the trap,
for I will bring against Moab
the year of their punishment.
This is the Lord’s declaration.
