'Ropes' in the Bible
They say, "Let's tear off the shackles they've put on us! Let's free ourselves from their ropes!"
The ropes of death were wrapped around me;the torrents of destruction terrified me.
The ropes of Sheol entangled me;the snares of death confronted me.
The ropes of death were wrapped around me,and the torments of Sheol overcame me;I encountered trouble and sorrow.
The LORD is God he will be our light! Bind the festival sacrifice with ropes to the horn at the altar.
Though the ropes of the wickedwere wrapped around me,I did not forget Your instruction.
The Lord is righteous;He has cut the ropes of the wicked.
The proud hide a trap with ropes for me;they spread a net along the pathand set snares for me.Selah
