Orthodox Jewish Bible

⁴⁽⁵⁾My nefesh is among lions, and I lie even among them that devour Bnei Adam, whose shinayim (teeth) are spears and khitzim (arrows), and their leshon a sharp cherev.

⁵⁽⁶⁾Be Thou exalted, O Elohim, above Shomayim; let Thy kavod be above kol ha’aretz.

⁶⁽⁷⁾They have prepared a reshet (net) for my steps; my nefesh is bowed down; they have dug a pit before me, into the midst whereof they are fallen themselves. Selah.

New International Version

⁴I am in the midst of lions;^(A)
I am forced to dwell among ravenous beasts—
men whose teeth are spears and arrows,
whose tongues are sharp swords.^(B)

⁵Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
let your glory be over all the earth.^(C)

⁶They spread a net for my feet^(D)—
I was bowed down^(E) in distress.
They dug a pit^(F) in my path—
but they have fallen into it themselves.^(G)
