10:8 One who digs a pit may 1 fall into it,
and one who breaks through a wall may be bitten by a snake. 2
8:17 The Lord says, 3
“Yes indeed, 4 I am sending an enemy against you
that will be like poisonous snakes which cannot be charmed away. 5
And they will inflict fatal wounds on you.” 6
5:19 Disaster will be inescapable, 7
as if a man ran from a lion only to meet a bear,
then escaped 8 into a house,
leaned his hand against the wall,
and was bitten by a poisonous snake.
9:3 Even if they were to hide on the top of Mount Carmel,
I would hunt them down and take them from there.
Even if they tried to hide from me 9 at the bottom of the sea,
from there 10 I would command the Sea Serpent 11 to bite them.
