Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
The best of them is like a brier; the most upright is sharper than a hedge of thorns. The day for your watchmen has come, the day of your visitation. Now is the time of their confusion.
World English Bible (WEB)
The best of them is like a brier. The most upright is worse than a thorn hedge. The day of your watchmen, even your visitation, has come; now is the time of their confusion.
Strong's King James
The best{H2896} of them is as a brier{H2312}: the most upright{H3477} is sharper than a thorn hedge{H4534}: the day{H3117} of thy watchmen{H6822}{(H8764)} and thy visitation{H6486} cometh{H935}{(H8804)}; now shall be their perplexity{H3998}.
The F.O.G *
The good of them is a thorn, The most straight, a thorn hedge, The day of your watchmen watching, Your appointed [time] will come.
The F.O.G Message *
Young's Literal Translation
Their best one is as a brier, The upright one—than a thorn-hedge, The day of thy watchmen—Thy visitation—hath come. Now is their perplexity.
