New International Version (NIV)

8may ruin overtake them by surprise—

may the net they hid entangle them,

may they fall into the pit, to their ruin.

8Let destruction come upon him when he is unaware,

And let the net which he hid catch him;

Let him fall into that very destruction.

8Let destruction come upon my enemy by surprise;

Let the net he hid for me catch him;

Into that very destruction let him fall.

8May ruin befall them by surprise;

may the net they hid ensnare them;

may they fall into the hazard they created.

8Let destruction come upon him unawares;

And let his net that he hath hid catch himself:

With destruction let him fall therein.

8Let destruction come vpon him at vnwares, and let his net, that he hath laid priuilie, take him: let him fall into the same destruction.

8Let destruction come on him unawares.

Let his net that he has hidden catch himself.

Let him fall into that destruction.

8So let them be destroyed without warning.

Let the trap they set for me catch them.

Let them fall into the pit and be destroyed.

8Surprise my enemies and destroy them!

Let their own traps catch them!

Let them fall to their own death!

8Desolation meets him—he does not know, || And his net that he hid catches him, || He falls into it for desolation.
