³ For behold, they ^(A)have ^[a]set an ambush for my ^[b]life;
^[c]Fierce men ^[d](B)launch an attack against me,
^(C)Not for my transgression nor for my sin, O Lord,

² The ^[a]godly person has ^(A)perished from the land,
And there is no upright person among men.
All of them lie in wait for ^(B)bloodshed;
Each of them hunts the other with a ^(C)net.
