he digs a pit ¹  and then falls into the hole he has made. ² 

Your arrows are sharp and penetrate the hearts of the king’s enemies. Nations fall at your feet. ¹ 

He ¹  will descend like rain on the mown grass, ²  like showers that drench ³  the earth. ⁴ 

Yes, ¹  look! Those far from you ²  die; you destroy everyone who is unfaithful to you. ³ 

Though a thousand may fall beside you, and a multitude on your right side, it ¹  will not reach you.

They will lift you up in their hands, so you will not slip and fall on a stone. ¹ 

If I say, “My foot is slipping,” your loyal love, O Lord, supports me.

Come! Let’s bow down and worship! ¹  Let’s kneel before the Lord, our creator!

So he used suffering to humble them; ¹  they stumbled and no one helped them up.

I am fading away like a shadow at the end of the day; ¹  I am shaken off like a locust.

A foolish child ¹  is the ruin of his father, and a contentious wife ²  is like ³  a constant dripping. ⁴ 

Although ¹  a righteous person may fall seven times, he gets up again, but the wicked will be brought down ²  by calamity.

Like a muddied ¹  spring and a polluted ²  well, so is a righteous person who gives way ³  before the wicked.

For you will be like a tree whose leaves wither, like an orchard ¹  that is unwatered.

Many will stumble over the stone and the rock, ¹  and will fall and be seriously injured, and will be ensnared and captured.”

Together they bend low and kneel down; they are unable to rescue the images; ¹  they themselves ²  head off into captivity. ³ 

The slain will fall among you and then you will know that I am the Lord. ¹ 

You will be overcome by ¹  drunkenness and sorrow. The cup of your sister Samaria is a cup of horror and desolation.

Whoever does not bow down and pay homage will immediately ¹  be thrown into the midst of a furnace of blazing fire!”

And whoever does not bow down and pay homage must be thrown into the midst of a furnace of blazing fire.
