tse.la denotes a stumble or fall, including the feared fall watched for by opponents and a condition linked with distress over sin.

The attested uses concern a stumble or fall: opponents watch for it in Jeremiah 20:10, and it is the occasion for hostile rejoicing in Psalm 35:15; Psalm 38:18 places the absolute form in a confession marked by anxiety over sin, though the translation does not isolate its contribution.

1. A stumble or fall under hostile scrutiny · dominant

   The construct forms occur where adversaries await a person's collapse: in Jeremiah 20:10 the APB renders the clause "All my allies are watching for my fall," and in Psalm 35:15 it renders "when I stumbled they rejoiced and gathered together." In Psalm 38:18 the absolute form occurs in the verse whose APB rendering joins confession of iniquity with anxiety because of sin; the translation does not make the noun's specific English equivalent clear.
