גָּדַר בַּעֲדִי וְלֹא אֵצֵא הִכְבִּיד נְחָשְׁתִּֽי
He hath hedged me about, that I cannot go forth; He hath made my chain heavy.
גַּם כִּי אֶזְעַק וַאֲשַׁוֵּעַ שָׂתַם תְּפִלָּתִֽי
Yea, when I cry and call for help, He shutteth out my prayer.
גָּדַר דְּרָכַי בְּגָזִית נְתִיבֹתַי עִוָּֽה
He hath enclosed my ways with hewn stone, He hath made my paths crooked.
דֹּב אֹרֵב הוּא לִי אריה בְּמִסְתָּרִֽים
He is unto me as a bear lying in wait, As a lion in secret places.
דְּרָכַי סוֹרֵר וַֽיְפַשְּׁחֵנִי שָׂמַנִי שֹׁמֵֽם
He hath turned aside my ways, and pulled me in pieces; He hath made me desolate.
