A trap catches him by the heel;

a noose seizes him.

and let it be a trap for their allies.

and set snares for me.Selah

like a bird darting into a snare —

he doesn’t know it will cost him his life.

and have hidden snares for my feet.

Panic, pit, and trap

await you, resident of Moab.

Yet the prophet encounters a bird trap

on all his pathways.

Hostility is in the house of his God!

when it has caught nothing?
