7  ^rHe has walled me about so that ^sI cannot escape;

he has made my chains heavy;

9  ^rhe has blocked my ways with blocks of stones;

he has made my paths crooked.

6  Therefore ^jI will hedge up her¹ way with thorns,

and ^kI will build a wall against her,

so that she cannot find her paths.

23  Why is light given to a man whose ^vway is hidden,

whom God has ^whedged in?

27  You put my feet in ^gthe stocks

and ^hwatch all my paths;

you set a limit for¹ the soles of my feet.
