What Does Psalms 119:110 Mean?
'The wicked have laid a snare for me' describes an ambush. The wicked have set a trap intending to catch and harm the psalmist. The danger is real and proximate.
'Yet I erred not from thy precepts' shows the outcome: the snare did not divert the psalmist from his path. He did not waver or take a wrong turn despite the threat.
