Psalms 141

¹ Lord, I call on you, hasten to help me! Listen to my plea when I call to you.
² Let my prayer rise to you like incense, as I lift up my hands as in an evening sacrifice.
³ O Lord, set a guard at my mouth, keep watch at the gate of my lips.
⁴ Let not my heart be drawn to evil; let me not be enticed into evil acts in company with sinners, and let me not partake of their delights.
⁵ Rather the reproach and the just scourge, than the oil of the wicked anointing my head.
⁶ When their rulers are flung upon the rock, only then will these wicked learn that I was tolerant with them,
⁷ when the earth opens to swallow them and their bones are scattered at the edge of the netherworld.
⁸ But my eyes are turned to you, O God, my Lord; strip me not of life, for you are my refuge.
⁹ Keep me from the trap they have set for me, keep me from the net laid by evildoers.
¹⁰ Let the wicked fall into their own snares, while I alone escape safe and free.
