Since they hid their net for me without cause and without cause dug a pit for me

They repay me evil for good and leave me like one bereaved.

For without cause they hid their net for me; without cause they dug a pit for my life.

They repay me evil for good; my soul is bereft.

I did them no wrong, but they laid a trap for me. I did them no wrong, but they dug a pit to catch me.

They repay me evil for good. I am sick with despair.

They hid their net for me without cause; they dug a pit for me without cause.

They repay me evil for good, making me desolate.

For without cause have they hid for me their net in a pit, Which without cause they have digged for my soul.

They rewarded me evil for good To the spoiling of my soul.

For without cause they have hidden their net for me in a pit, Which they have dug without cause for my life.

They reward me evil for good, To the sorrow of my soul.

When those thugs try to knife me in the back, make them look foolish. Frustrate all those who are plotting my downfall. Make them like cinders in a high wind, with GOD’s angel working the bellows. Make their road lightless and mud-slick, with GOD’s angel on their tails. Out of sheer cussedness they set a trap to catch me; for no good reason they dug a ditch to stop me. Surprise them with your ambush— catch them in the very trap they set, the disaster they planned for me.

Hostile accusers appear out of nowhere, they stand up and badger me. They pay me back misery for mercy, leaving my soul empty.

For they hid their net for me without cause; Without cause they dug a pit for my soul.

They repay me evil for good, To the bereavement of my soul.

For without cause they hid their net for me; Without cause they dug a pit [of destruction] for my life.

They repay me evil for good, To the sorrow of my soul.

I did not harm them, but they hid a net to catch me and dug a pit to trap me.

They repay me evil for the good I have done; I am overwhelmed with sorrow.
