New International Version (NIV)

3See how they lie in wait for me!

Fierce men conspire against me

for no offense or sin of mine, Lord.

3For behold, they have set an ambush for my life;

Fierce men attack me,

Not for my wrongdoing nor for my sin, Lord,

3Look! They lie in wait for my life;

Fierce and powerful men [are uniting together to] launch an attack against me,

Not for my wrongdoing nor for any sin of mine, O Lord.

3See how they lie in wait for me.

Fierce men conspire against me

for no transgression or sin of my own, O Lord.

3For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul;

The mighty gather themselves together against me:

Not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O Jehovah.

3For loe, they haue layd waite for my soule: the mightie men are gathered against me, not for mine offence, nor for my sinne, O Lord.

3For, behold, they lie in wait for my soul.

The mighty gather themselves together against me,

not for my disobedience, nor for my sin, Yahweh.

3See how they hide and wait for me!

Lord, angry people plan to harm me,

even though I haven’t hurt them in any way or sinned against them.

3Look at them! They are waiting to kill me!

Cruel men are ready to attack me.

Lord, I have not done anything against them,

but they still want to kill me.

3For behold, they laid wait for my soul, || Strong ones are assembled against me, || Not my transgression nor my sin, O YHWH.
