Arrogant people have dug pits to trap me in defiance of your teachings.
Let arrogant people be put to shame because they lied about me, ⌞yet⌟ I reflect on your guiding principles.
For no reason they hid their net in a pit. For no reason they dug the pit ⌞to trap me⌟.
Do not let the feet of arrogant people step on me or the hands of wicked people push me away.
He digs a pit and shovels it out. Then he falls into the hole that he made ⌞for others⌟.
A worthless person plots trouble, and his speech is like a burning fire.
Good should not be paid back with evil. They dig a pit to take my life. Remember how I stood in your presence and pleaded for them in order to turn your anger away from them.
Make them cry out from their homes when you suddenly send troops against them, because they dug a pit to catch me and hid snares for my feet.
