Lying In Wait

He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lieth in wait to catch the poor: he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him into his net.

For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O LORD.

He was unto me as a bear lying in wait, and as a lion in secret places.

She also lieth in wait as for a prey, and increaseth the transgressors among men.

Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
