Psalm 9:16-18
Common English Bible
16 The Lord is famous for the justice he has done;
it’s his own doing that the wicked are trapped. Higgayon.[a] Selah
17 Let the wicked go straight to the grave,[b]
the same for every nation that forgets God.
18 Because the poor won’t be forgotten forever,
the hope of those who suffer won’t be lost for all time.
