As when one plows and breaks up the earth,
    so shall our bones (A)be scattered at the mouth of Sheol.[a]

But (B)my eyes are toward you, O God, my Lord;
    (C)in you I seek refuge; leave me not defenseless![b]
Keep me from (D)the trap that they have laid for me
    and from the snares of evildoers!
