Psalm 119:85
<< Psalm 119:85 >>
The arrogant have dug pits for me, Men who are not in accord with Your law. (NASB ©1995)

Psalm 7:15 He has dug a pit and hollowed it out, And has fallen into the hole which he made.

Psalm 35:7 For without cause they hid their net for me; Without cause they dug a pit for my soul.

Psalm 57:6 They have prepared a net for my steps; My soul is bowed down; They dug a pit before me; They themselves have fallen into the midst of it. Selah.

Jeremiah 18:22 May an outcry be heard from their houses, When You suddenly bring raiders upon them; For they have dug a pit to capture me And hidden snares for my feet. (NASB ©1995)

the proud. This metaphor is taken from the mode in which wild beasts are caught in the East; deep pits are dug in the earth, and slightly covered over with reeds, turf, etc., so as not to be discerned from the solid ground; and the animals attempting to walk over them, the surface breaks, they fall in, and are taken alive. Thus the Psalmist's enemies employed craft as well as power in order to effect his ruin. Ps 119:78 7:15 35:7 36:11 Pr 16:27 Jer 18:20
