There catcheth him - by the heel - a gin, there holdeth him fast - a noose:

The meshes of hades, had surrounded me, The snares of death, had confronted me,

Let their table, before them, become a snare, And unto their friends, a lure;

The proud have hidden a snare for me, and, cords, have they spread as a net beside the track, Snares, have they set for me. Selah.

As for the head of them who surround me, Let the mischief of their lips cover them:

the instruction of the wise, is a well-spring of life, by departing from the snares of death.

So shall he become a hallowed asylum, - But a stone to strike against, and a rock to stumble over unto both houses of Israel A trap and a snare to the dweller in Jerusalem;

Will a bird fall upon a net to the earth, when there is no, snare, for it? Will a net rise front the ground, when it hath, captured nothing?

Will a bird fall upon a net to the earth, when there is no, snare, for it? Will a net rise front the ground, when it hath, captured nothing?

So shall he become a hallowed asylum, - But a stone to strike against, and a rock to stumble over unto both houses of Israel A trap and a snare to the dweller in Jerusalem;
