Psalms - Chapter 141

¹ [Psalm Of David] Yahweh, I am calling, hurry to me, listen to my voice when I call to you.

² May my prayer be like incense in your presence, my uplifted hands like the evening sacrifice.

³ Yahweh, mount a guard over my mouth, a guard at the door of my lips.

⁴ Check any impulse to speak evil, to share the foul deeds of evil-doers. I shall not sample their delights!

⁵ May the upright correct me with a friend's rebuke; but the wicked shall never anoint my head with oil, for that would make me party to their crimes.

⁶ They are delivered into the power of the rock, their judge, those who took pleasure in hearing me say,

⁷ 'Like a shattered millstone on the ground our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol.'

⁸ To you, Yahweh, I turn my eyes, in you I take refuge, do not leave me unprotected.

⁹ Save me from the traps that are set for me, the snares of evil-doers.

¹⁰ Let the wicked fall each into his own net, while I pass on my way.
