Thou puttest my feet also in the stocks, and markest all my paths; Thou drawest thee a line about the soles of my feet:
Know now that God hath subverted me in my cause, And hath compassed me with his net.
He delivereth the afflicted by his affliction, And openeth their ear in oppression.
Take heed, regard not iniquity: For this hast thou chosen rather than affliction.
Such as sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, Being bound in affliction and iron;
The cords of death compassed me, And the pains of Sheol gat hold upon me I found trouble and sorrow
The cords of the wicked have wrapped me round; But I have not forgotten thy law.
To bind their king's with chains, And their nobles with fetters of iron;
His own iniquities shall take the wicked, And he shall be holden with the cords of his sin.
He hath fenced up my ways with hewn stone, he hath made my paths crooked.
