In context

14And on it he has fitted the instruments of death; He has completed his arrows for the raging ones.

15Behold, he has travailed with unrighteousness, He has conceived trouble, and brought forth iniquity.

— Psalms 7:16 —

17His trouble shall return on his own head, And his unrighteousness shall come down on his own crown.

18I will give thanks to the Lord according to his righteousness; I will sing to the name of the Lord most high.
