Hunting: Fowling

So do not let my blood fall to the ground far from the presence of the LORD. For the king of Israel has come out to look for a flea, like one who hunts a partridge in the mountains.”

The proud hide a snare for me; the cords of their net are spread along the path, and lures are set out for me. Selah

Keep me from the snares they have laid for me, and from the lures of evildoers.

Let the wicked fall into their own nets, while I pass by in safety.

How futile it is to spread the net where any bird can see it!

For surely no man knows his time: Like fish caught in a cruel net or birds trapped in a snare, so men are ensnared in an evil time that suddenly falls upon them.

Without cause my enemies hunted me like a bird.

Does a bird land in a snare where no bait has been set? Does a trap spring from the ground when it has nothing to catch?
