Psalms 7:12-17

GNT

NIV

12 If they do not change their ways, God will sharpen his sword. He bends his bow and makes it ready;
12 If he does not relent, he will sharpen his sword; he will bend and string his bow.
13 he takes up his deadly weapons and aims his burning arrows.
13 He has prepared his deadly weapons; he makes ready his flaming arrows.
14 See how wicked people think up evil; they plan trouble and practice deception.
14 Whoever is pregnant with evil conceives trouble and gives birth to disillusionment.
15 But in the traps they set for others, they themselves get caught.
15 Whoever digs a hole and scoops it out falls into the pit they have made.
16 So they are punished by their own evil and are hurt by their own violence.
16 The trouble they cause recoils on them; their violence comes down on their own heads.
17 I thank the Lord for his justice; I sing praises to the Lord, the Most High.
17 I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness; I will sing the praises of the name of the LORD Most High.
