12. If a person does not repent,God will sharpen his sword;he will bend and string his bow.
13. He will prepare his deadly weaponsand shoot his flaming arrows.
14. The wicked conceive evil;they are pregnant with troubleand give birth to lies.
15. They dig a deep pit to trap others,then fall into it themselves.
16. The trouble they make for others backfires on them.The violence they plan falls on their own heads.
17. I will thank the lord because he is just;I will sing praise to the name of the lord Most High.
