“The yoke of my transgressions is bound by his hand. They are knit together. They have come up on my neck. He made my strength fail. The Lord has delivered me into their hands, against whom I am not able to stand.

Verse 14. Watched. This metaphor is not too harsh. Calmet. 31:28. The Masorets prefer, ( Calmet.) “is bound by his hand.” Prot. But miskad is explained ( Bible.) by the Septuagint and so forth in the sense of the Vulg. God lays the yoke on my neck suddenly. My iniquities are like bands, and Nabuchodonosor has power over me.
The word translated “Lord” is “Adonai.”
