141:1 A song of David. Lord, I call to you. Come quickly. Listen to me when I call to you.
141:2 Let my prayer be like incense placed before you. Let my praise be like the evening sacrifice.
141:3 Lord, help me control my tongue. Help me be careful about what I say.
141:4 Don’t let me want to do evil or join others in doing wrong. Don’t let me eat with those who do evil.
141:5 If a good man punished me, that would be kind. If he corrected me, that would be like having perfumed oil on my head. I shouldn’t refuse it. But I pray against those who do evil.
141:6 Let their leaders be thrown down the cliffs. Then people will know that I have spoken the truth:
141:7 “The ground is plowed and broken up. In the same way, our bones have been scattered at the grave.”
141:8 Lord God, I look to you for help. I trust in you. Don’t let me die.
141:9 Protect me from the traps they set for me and from the net evil people have spread.
141:10 Let the wicked fall into their own pits. And let me pass by safely.
