Commentaire sur Les Psaumes 9:16

Nations have sunk This is the praise that I will tell.

The nations are sunk down in the pit that they made: – The Philistines who came to fight against us thought to cause us to fall, and they have fallen themselves In a net which they hid: – and in a net which they hid to take us is their own foot fallen: – And the explanation of the particle זוּ is that it is equivalent to אשׁר; and so (in the passage) לו חטאנו זוּ, "He against whom we have sinned" (Is. 42:24); but it is possible to take it in its usual sense as equivalent to זֶה, this (i.e. in this net).
