141:1 A Psalm of David. Lord, I cry unto You; make haste to me; give ear to my voice, when I cry unto You.
141:2 Let my prayer be set forth before You as incense, 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 be drawn to any evil, to practice wicked deeds with men who do iniquity, and do not let me eat of their delights.
141:5 Let the righteous man strike me; it shall be a kindness. Let him rebuke me; it shall be oil for my head; let my head not refuse it. For my prayer is continually against their evil deeds.
141:6 When their judges are thrown to stony places, then they shall hear my words, for they are sweet.
141:7 As when one plows to break up the land, so our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol.
141:8 But my eyes are unto You, O God my Lord, in You is my trust; do not leave my soul defenseless.
141:9 Keep me from the snares that they have laid for me, and the traps of those who do iniquity.
141:10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, while I pass by and escape.
