Psalms Chapter 141 (NIV)
undefined
Psalm 141A psalm of David.O Lord, I call to you; come quickly to me.Hear my voice when I call to you.
undefined
May my prayer be set before you like incense;may the lifting up of my hands be like the evening sacrifice.
undefined
Set a guard over my mouth, O Lord;keep watch over the door of my lips.
undefined
Let not my heart be drawn to what is evil,to take part in wicked deedswith men who are evildoers;let me not eat of their delicacies.
undefined
Let a righteous man strike me—it is a kindness;let him rebuke me—it is oil on my head.My head will not refuse it.Yet my prayer is ever against the deeds of evildoers;
undefined
their rulers will be thrown down from the cliffs,and the wicked will learn that my words were well spoken.
undefined
They will say, “As one plows and breaks up the earth,so our bones have been scattered at the mouth of the grave.”
undefined
But my eyes are fixed on you, O Sovereign Lord;in you I take refuge—do not give me over to death.
undefined
Keep me from the snares they have laid for me,from the traps set by evildoers.
undefined
Let the wicked fall into their own nets,while I pass by in safety.
