Check a: “once I was stoned”
Translators need to make sure that when a passage is read out loud in different settings (adults, youth, seniors, etc.), that it won’t cause laughing like some of these translations come across. A clarifying phrase like “pelted with stones” (NIV), “by my enemies” (HCSB), or “I received a stoning” (NET) is very helpful. The other translations are accurate, but not sensitive to contemporary terminology.
