Bible verse
For his own feet lead him into a net, and he wanders into its mesh.
Job 18:8 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 18.
4 You who tear yourself in anger—should the earth be forsaken on your account, or the rocks be moved from their place?
5 Indeed, the lamp of the wicked is extinguished; the flame of his fire does not glow.
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.
