He hath fenced up my way that I cannot pass, and he hath set darkness in my paths.

He hath hedged me about, that I cannot get out: he hath made my chain heavy.

Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel, My way is hid from the LORD, and my judgment is passed over from my God?

Therefore, behold, I will hedge up thy way with thorns, and make a wall, that she shall not find her paths.

His troops come together, and raise up their way against me, and encamp round about my tabernacle.

And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large room.

Behold, he breaketh down, and it cannot be built again: he shutteth up a man, and there can be no opening.

Know now that God hath overthrown me, and hath compassed me with his net.

Thou hast put away mine acquaintance far from me; thou hast made me an abomination unto them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth.

He hath inclosed my ways with hewn stone, he hath made my paths crooked.
