⌞My enemies⌟ spread out a net to catch me. (My soul is bowed down.) They dug a pit to trap me, but then they fell into it. Selah
The Lord supports everyone who falls. He straightens ⌞the backs⌟ of those who are bent over.
Faithful people are gone from the earth, and no one is decent. All people lie in ambush to commit murder. They trap each other with nets.
Whoever leads decent people into evil will fall into his own pit, but innocent people will inherit good things.
Arrogant people have laid a trap for me. They have spread out a net with ropes. They have set traps for me along the road. Selah
A person who flatters his neighbor is spreading a net for him to step into.
When I begin to lose hope, you ⌞already⌟ know what I am experiencing. ⌞My enemies⌟ have hidden a trap for me on the path where I walk.
That is why I begin to lose hope and my heart is in a state of shock.
My soul is discouraged. That is why I will remember you in the land of Jordan, on the peaks of Hermon, on Mount Mizar.
But as I live and as the glory of the Lord fills the whole earth, I solemnly swear that
he praised the Lord while the whole assembly watched. David said, “May you be praised, Lord God of Israel, our father forever and ever.
Greatness, power, splendor, glory, and majesty are yours, Lord, because everything in heaven and on earth is yours. The kingdom is yours, Lord, and you are honored as head of all things.
From the mouths of little children and infants, you have built a fortress against your opponents to silence the enemy and the avenger.
Save ⌞us⌟ with your powerful hand, and answer us so that those who are dear to you may be rescued.
