A pit, he cut out, and digged it, and then fell into the ditch he had made:

For, without cause, have they hid for me, in a ditch, their net, - Without cause, have they digged a pit for my life.

A net, did they fix for my steps, My soul was bowed down, - They digged before me a pit, They fell into the midst thereof! Selah.

That thou mayest give him rest from the days of misfortune, Until there be digged - for the lawless one - a pit.

Insolent men digged for me pits, men who are not according to thy law.
