The ropes of Sheol were wrapped aroundme; the snares of death were opposite me.
The sorrows of hell compassed me about; The snares of death prevented me;
The cords of Sheol were entangling me; I encountered the snares of death.
The cords of Sheol were round about me; The snares of death came upon me.
The cords of the grave surrounded me; death’s traps held me tight.
The ropes of Hell have encompassed me. The snares of death have intercepted me.
