9 Keep me from the snare which they have laid for me, and from the traps of the workers of iniquity.
The proud have hidden a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net by the way-side; they have set traps for me. Selah.
The wicked have laid a snare for me; but I have not wandered from thy precepts.
When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then *thou* knewest my path. In the way wherein I walked have they hidden a snare for me.
The teaching of the wise [man] is a fountain of life, to turn away from the snares of death.
