World English Bible
"The proud have dug pits for me, contrary to your law."
— Psalms 119:85, World English Bible
“The proud have digged pits for me, which are not after thy law.”
“The proud have digged pits for me, Who are not according to thy law. ”
“The arrogant dig pits to trap me, which violates your law.”
“The men of pride, who are turned away from your law, have put nets for me.”
“The proud have digged pits for me, which are not after thy law.”
My eyes fail for your word. I say, "When will you comfort me?"
For I have become like a wineskin in the smoke. I don't forget your statutes.
How many are the days of your servant? When will you execute judgment on those who persecute me?
The proud have dug pits for me, contrary to your law.
All of your commandments are faithful. They persecute me wrongfully. Help me!
They had almost wiped me from the earth, but I didn't forsake your precepts.
Preserve my life according to your loving kindness, so I will obey the statutes of your mouth. LAMED
