Second Samuel 22:6

The ropes of Sheol (the underworld) were wrapped (entangled) around me,
the snares of death confronted me (snares were thrown at me).
[Verses 5-6 form a well-structured chiasm with four expressions of death and four verbs for how it enveloped, terrified, wrapped, and confronted David, see Ps. 18:5–6.]
