Psalm 7:14-17
World English Bible
14 Behold,[a] he travails with iniquity.
Yes, he has conceived mischief,
and brought out falsehood.
15 He has dug a hole,
and has fallen into the pit which he made.
16 The trouble he causes shall return to his own head.
His violence shall come down on the crown of his own head.
17 I will give thanks to Yahweh according to his righteousness,
and will sing praise to the name of Yahweh Most High.

14 Behold, [the wicked man] conceives iniquity and is pregnant with mischief and gives birth to lies.

16 His mischief shall fall back in return upon his own head, and his violence come down [with the loose dirt] upon his own scalp.
