v. 9 – Radak suggests that the object your heads has been elided in the second line, as indicated by the alternative addition to the diagram. It is preferable, however, in light of the parallel in v. 7, to understand this instance of וּ֭שְׂאוּ (the parallel is niphal וְֽ֭הִנָּשְׂאוּ) as an intransitive unaccusative qallift yourselves up.
