Bible verse
A noose is hidden in the ground, and a trap lies in his path.
Job 18:10 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 18.
6 The light in his tent grows dark, and the lamp beside him goes out.
7 His vigorous stride is shortened, and his own schemes trip him up.
8 For his own feet lead him into a net, and he wanders into its mesh.
9 A trap seizes his heel; a snare grips him.
10 A noose is hidden in the ground, and a trap lies in his path.
11 Terrors frighten him on every side and harass his every step.
12 His strength is depleted, and calamity is ready at his side.
13 It devours patches of his skin; the firstborn of death devours his limbs.
14 He is torn from the shelter of his tent and is marched off to the king of terrors.
KJV
The snare [is] laid for him in the ground, and a trap for him in the way.

A noose is hid for him in the ground, And a trap for him in the way.
