14. Save me so I can praise you publicly at Jerusalem’s gates,so I can rejoice that you have rescued me.
15. The nations have fallen into the pit they dug for others.Their own feet have been caught in the trap they set.
16. The lord is known for his justice.The wicked are trapped by their own deeds.Quiet Interlude
17. The wicked will go down to the grave.This is the fate of all the nations who ignore God.
18. But the needy will not be ignored forever;the hopes of the poor will not always be crushed.
19. Arise, O lord!Do not let mere mortals defy you!Judge the nations!
20. Make them tremble in fear, O lord.Let the nations know they are merely human.Interlude
