14Behold, he travaileth with viniquity,
And hath vconceived mischief,
And vbrought forth falsehood.
15†He made a pit, and digged it,
And wis fallen into the ditch which he made.
16wHis mischief shall return upon his own head,
And his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate.

ESVEnglish Standard Version
Behold, the wicked man conceives evil
and is pregnant with mischief
and gives birth to lies.
He makes a pit, digging it out,
and falls into the hole that he has made.
His mischief returns upon his own head,
and on his own skull his violence descends.

NIVNew International Version (2011)
Whoever is pregnant with evil
conceives trouble and gives birth to disillusionment.
Whoever digs a hole and scoops it out
falls into the pit they have made.
The trouble they cause recoils on them;
their violence comes down on their own heads.

CSBChristian Standard Bible
See, the wicked one is pregnant with evil,
conceives trouble, and gives birth to deceit.
He dug a pit and hollowed it out
but fell into the hole he had made.
His trouble comes back on his own head;
his own violence comes down on top of his head.
Copyright 2017 Holman Bible Publishers
NLTNew Living Translation
The wicked conceive evil;
they are pregnant with trouble
and give birth to lies.
They dig a deep pit to trap others,
then fall into it themselves.
The trouble they make for others backfires on them.
The violence they plan falls on their own heads.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible
See, he travails with evil.
He is pregnant with trouble,
and he gives birth to deception.
He makes a pit and digs it out,
then falls in the trap he has made.
His trouble comes back on his head,
and his violence comes down on his skull.
