Psalms 9:16

16 The Lord has revealed Himself;
He has executed justice, ^a
striking down ^{▼▼Or justice, snaring} the wicked ^{▼▼LXX, Aq, Syr, Tg read justice, the wicked is trapped}
by the work of their hands. ^d
^{▼▼Higgaion: Perhaps a musical notation, a device denoting a pause in an instrumental interlude, or a murmuring harp tone}Higgaion. ^{▼▼Selah: A Hebrew word whose meaning is uncertain; various interpretations include: (1) a musical notation, (2) a pause for silence, (3) a signal for worshipers to fall prostrate on the ground, (4) a term for the worshipers to call out, and (5) a word meaning "forever"}Selah
