- Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock, And they hear my words, for they are pleasant.
- As when one plows and breaks open the earth, Our bones have been scattered at the mouth of Sheol.
- For my eyes are toward You, O GOD, the Lord; In You I take refuge; do not leave me defenseless.
- Keep me from the jaws of the trap which they have set for me, And from the snares of those who do iniquity.
- Let the wicked fall into their own nets, While I pass by safely.

- their rulers will be thrown down from the cliffs, and the wicked will learn that my words were well spoken.
- They will say, "As one plows and breaks up the earth, so our bones have been scattered at the mouth of the grave. "
- But my eyes are fixed on you, O Sovereign LORD; in you I take refuge--do not give me over to death.
- Keep me from the snares they have laid for me, from the traps set by evildoers.
- Let the wicked fall into their own nets, while I pass by in safety.
