Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 140:5. And cords; they have spread a net by the wayside;-

" Close to where I am walking, so that, if I go even an inch out of the way, I shall be caught in it. They seem to be tempting me in my usual course of life: ‘They have spread a net by the wayside;’" -

Psalms 140:5. They have set gins for me. Selah.

As men try to ensnare poor birds in all kinds of traps, so the ungodly sometimes seek the destruction of the righteous by setting many snares for them.
