9 Keep me from the gin they laid for me, Even snares of workers of iniquity.
The proud hid a snare for me -- and cords, They spread a net by the side of the path, Snares they have set for me. Selah.
The wicked have laid a snare for me, And from thy precepts I wandered not.
When my spirit hath been feeble in me, Then Thou hast known my path; In the way `in' which I walk, They have hid a snare for me.
The law of the wise `is' a fountain of life, To turn aside from snares of death.
