Psalm 141
My Prayer as Incense Before You
141A Psalm of David.
O Yahweh, I call upon You; ahasten to me!bGive ear to my voice when I call to You!2May my prayer be established as aincense before You;The blifting up of my hands as the cevening offering.3Set a aguard, O Yahweh, 1over my mouth;Keep watch over the bdoor of my lips.4aDo not incline my heart to any evil thing,To practice deeds in wickednessWith men who are bworkers of iniquity;And cdo not let me eat of their delicacies.5Let the arighteous smite me in lovingkindness and reprove me;It is boil upon the head;Let not my head refuse it,1For still my prayer cis 2against their evil deeds.6Their judges are athrown down by the sides of the cliff,And they hear my words, for they are pleasant.7As when one aplows and splits open the earth,Our bbones have been scattered at the cmouth of Sheol.8For my aeyes are toward You, O Yahweh, O Lord;In You I btake refuge; cdo not pour out my soul to death.9Keep me from the 1,ajaws of the trap which they have set for me,And from the bsnares of workers of iniquity.10Let the wicked afall into their own nets,As for myself—meanwhile, bI am passing by.
