What is the meaning of "v'Yig'eh ka'Shachal Tetzudeni"?

1.

Rashi: It should be great in Your eyes to be to You a burden and disappointment that You trap me like a lion. You spread a trap for me, as if I am strong like a lion!

2.

Ibn Ezra: Every day, my affliction increases.

3.

Malbim: The disgrace and affliction grow. You trap me like a lion - this is a Mashal for all his actions being b'Yad Hashem. Even though a lion is very strong, it cannot do anything, for it is tied in its owner's hand. It can go only where the owner lets it, via the chain in his hand. So I cannot do anything without You - why do You attribute my deeds to me, as if I have choice?

2)

Why did he say "v'Sashuv Tispala Vi"?

1.

Rashi: Every day You return to be explicit in Mishpat - "Ki Yafli."

2.

Ibn Ezra: Time after time, You show Your wonders in me. This is like "Ach Bi Yashuv" (3:3).
