Chapter 141

1

 

 A Psalm of David. LORD, I cry to thee: make haste to me; give ear to my voice, when I cry to thee. 

 


2

 

 Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice. 

 


3

 

 Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips. 

 


4

 

 Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practice wicked works with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties. 

 


5

 

 Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil, which shall not break my head: for yet my prayer also shall be in their calamities. 

 


6

 

 When their judges are overthrown in stony places, they shall hear my words; for they are sweet. 

 


7

 

 Our bones are scattered at the grave's mouth, as when one cutteth and cleaveth wood upon the earth. 

 


8

 

 But my eyes are to thee, O GOD the Lord: in thee is my trust; leave not my soul destitute. 

 


9

 

 Keep me from the snare which they have laid for me, and the gins of the workers of iniquity. 

 


10

 

 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst I escape.
