141:1 [A Psalm of David.] O LORD, I call upon you; hasten to me! Give ear to my voice when I call to you! 141:2 Let my prayer be counted as incense before you, and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice! 141:3 Set a guard, O LORD, over my mouth; keep watch over the door of my lips! 141:4 Do not let my heart incline to any evil, to busy myself with wicked deeds in company with men who work iniquity, and let me not eat of their delicacies! 141:5 Let a righteous man strike me--it is a kindness; let him rebuke me--it is oil for my head; let my head not refuse it. Yet my prayer is continually against their evil deeds. 141:6 When their judges are thrown over the cliff, then they shall hear my words, for they are pleasant. 141:7 As when one plows and breaks up the earth, so shall our bones be scattered at the mouth of Sheol. 141:8 But my eyes are toward you, O GOD, my Lord; in you I seek refuge; leave me not defenseless! 141:9 Keep me from the trap that they have laid for me and from the snares of evildoers! 141:10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, while I pass by safely.
