— Job 18:9, Bible in Basic English
“The gin shall take him by the heel, and the robber shall prevail against him.”
“A gin shall take him by the heel, Anda snare shall lay hold on him. ”
“A snare will take him by the heel. A trap will catch him.”
“A trap seizes him by the heel; a snare grips him.”
“The sole of his foot shall be held in a snare, and thirst shall burn against him.”
“The gin shall take him by the heel, and the robber shall prevail against him.”
The light is dark in his tent, and the light shining over him is put out.
The steps of his strength become short, and by his design destruction overtakes him.
His feet take him into the net, and he goes walking into the cords.
His foot is taken in the net; he comes into its grip.
The twisted cord is put secretly in the earth to take him, and the cord is placed in his way.
He is overcome by fears on every side, they go after him at every step.
His strength is made feeble for need of food, and destruction is waiting for his falling footstep.
