- "And they¹ lay waitª° for their [own] blood;ª they lurk privilyª° for their [own] lives.ª" {Prv 1:18} + "He sittethª° in the lurking placesª of the villages:ª in the secret placesª doth he murderª° the innocent:ª his eyesª are privily setª° against the poor.ª ... He croucheth,ª° [and] humblethª° himself, that the poorª²°° may fallª° by his strong ones.ª" {Psa 10:8-10} + "Likeª as a lionª [that] is greedyª° of his prey,ª° and as it were a young lionª lurkingª° in secret places.ª" {Psa 17:12} + "For¹ without causeª have they hidª° for me their netª [in] a pit,ª [which] without causeª they have diggedª° for my soul.ª" {Psa 35:7} + "But I¹ [was] like a lambª [or] an oxª [that] is broughtª° to the slaughter;ª° and I knewª° not¹ that¹ they had devisedª° devicesª against¹ me, [saying], Let us destroyª° the treeª with the fruitª thereof, and let us cut him offª° from the landª¹ of the living,ª that his nameª may be no¹ more¹ remembered.ª°" {Jer 11:19} + "Then saidª° they, Come,²°¹ and let us deviseª° devicesª against¹ Jeremiah;ª for¹ the lawª shall not¹ perishª° from the priest,ª¹ nor counselª from the wise,ª¹ nor the wordª from the prophet.ª¹ Come,²°¹ and let us smiteª° him with the tongue,ª and let us not¹ give heedª° to¹ any¹ of his words.ª ... Shall evilª be recompensedª° for¹ good?ª for¹ they have diggedª° a pitª for my soul.ª Rememberª° that I stoodª° beforeª thee to speakª° goodª for¹ them, [and] to turn awayª°¹ thy wrathª from¹ them." {Jer 18:18-20} + "Thenª assembled togetherª° the¹ chief priests,ª andª the¹ scribes,ª andª the¹ eldersª of the¹ people,ª untoª the¹ palaceª of the¹ high priest,ª who² was calledª° Caiaphas,ª ... Andª consultedª° thatª they might takeª° Jesusª by subtilty,ª andª killª° [him]." {Mtt 26:3-4} + "Butª [this cometh to pass], thatª the¹ wordª might be fulfilledª° that is writtenª° inª theirª law,ª² They hatedª° meª without a cause.ª" {Jhn 15:25}
