His archers surround me. He splits my kidneys apart, and does not spare. He pours out my bile on the ground.

For he is cast into a net by his own feet, and he wanders into its mesh.

The nations have sunk down in the pit that they made. In the net which they hid, their own foot is taken.

For in Yahweh’s hand there is a cup, full of foaming wine mixed with spices. He pours it out. Indeed the wicked of the earth drink and drink it to its very dregs.

I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up. While I suffer your terrors, I am distracted.

For the arrows of the Almighty are within me. My spirit drinks up their poison. The terrors of God set themselves in array against me.
