NET Bible
"Those who seek my life try to entrap me; those who want to harm me speak destructive words; all day long they say deceitful things."
— Psalms 38:12, NET Bible
“They also that seek after my life lay snares for me: and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.”
“They also that seek after my life lay snares for me; And they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, And meditate deceits all the day long. ”
“They also who seek after my life lay snares. Those who seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and meditate deceits all day long.”
“Thou hast corrected man for iniquity. And thou hast made his soul to waste away like a spider: surely in vain is any man disquieted.”
“Those who have a desire to take my life put nets for me; those who are designing my destruction say evil things against me, all the day their minds are full of deceit.”
“They also that seek after my life lay snares for me: and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long.”
O Lord, you understand my heart’s desire; my groaning is not hidden from you.
My heart beats quickly; my strength leaves me; I can hardly see.
Because of my condition, even my friends and acquaintances keep their distance; my neighbors stand far away.
Those who seek my life try to entrap me; those who want to harm me speak destructive words; all day long they say deceitful things.
But I am like a deaf man– I hear nothing; I am like a mute who cannot speak.
I am like a man who cannot hear and is incapable of arguing his defense.
Yet I wait for you, O LORD! You will respond, O Lord, my God!
