Amsal 6:5

6:5 Deliver yourself like a gazelle from a snare, ¹ 

and like a bird from the trap ²  of the fowler.

[6:5]  ¹ tn Heb “from the hand.” Most translations supply “of the hunter.” The word “hand” can signify power, control; so the meaning is that of a gazelle freeing itself from a snare or a trap that a hunter set.

[6:5]  ² tc Heb “hand” (so KJV, NAB, NRSV). Some mss and versions have it as “trap,” which may very well represent an interpretation too.
