There is a footnote in NWT saying:
"Like the lion - my hands and (my) feet," M; T, "Biting like a lion my hands and my feet"; LXXVg, "They bored (dug through) my hands and my feet."

(M= B19A, the Leningrad MSS; T = Targums; Vg = the Vulgate.

Thank you. I withdraw my criticism of the NWT treatment of this particular verse.
