141:1 A psalm of David. O LORD, I am calling to you. Please hurry! Listen when I cry to you for help!
141:2 Accept my prayer as incense offered to you, and my upraised hands as an evening offering.
141:3 Take control of what I say, O LORD, and guard my lips.
141:4 Don't let me drift toward evil or take part in acts of wickedness. Don't let me share in the delicacies of those who do wrong.
141:5 Let the godly strike me! It will be a kindness! If they correct me, it is soothing medicine. Don't let me refuse it. But I pray constantly against the wicked and their deeds.
141:6 When their leaders are thrown down from a cliff, the wicked will listen to my words and find them true.
141:7 Like rocks brought up by a plow, the bones of the wicked will lie scattered without burial.
141:8 I look to you for help, O Sovereign LORD. You are my refuge; don't let them kill me.
141:9 Keep me from the traps they have set for me, from the snares of those who do wrong.
141:10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, but let me escape.
