←Prev   Psalms 141 as rendered by/in  Next→ 



141:1  Lord Jehovah, I have called you; answer me, give ear and accept my words.
141:2  My prayer came before you like incense, and an offering of my hands like the evening offering.
141:3  Lord Jehovah, set a guard at my mouth and a guard for my lips
141:4  That my heart would not turn aside to an evil word or do evil works with wicked men. I shall not eat salt with them.
141:5  The Righteous One will teach me and will rebuke me; the oil of the wicked will not anoint my head because my prayer is against their evil companions.
141:6  And their Judges were restrained by the hand of The Stone, and they heard my words, for they are sweet.
141:7  Like a plowshare tears open the Earth, their bones are scattered over the mouth of Sheol.
141:8  And I have lifted my eyes up to you, Lord Jehovah, and I have trusted upon you; do not cast out my soul.
141:9  Keep me from the hand of the boastful, for they have hidden snares for me.
141:10  The evil will fall as one into their nets as I pass by.
