2 Samuel 22:6

American Standard Version (1901)

The cords of Sheol were round about me; The snares of death came upon me.

See the chapter Copy

The cords of death compassed me, And the pains of Sheol gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.

whom God raised up, having loosed the pangs of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it.

And he said, I called by reason of mine affliction unto Jehovah, And he answered me; Out of the belly of Sheol cried I, And thou heardest my voice.

The fear of Jehovah is a fountain of life, That one may depart from the snares of death.

The law of the wise is a fountain of life, That one may depart from the snares of death.

His own iniquities shall take the wicked, And he shall be holden with the cords of his sin.

The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; They have spread a net by the wayside; They have set gins for me. [Selah

The cords of Sheol were round about me; The snares of death came upon me.

And if they be bound in fetters, And be taken in the cords of affliction;

But when ye see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that her desolation is at hand.
