Psalms 141 YLT

¹ A Psalm, by David. O Jehovah, I have called Thee, haste to me, Give ear 'to' my voice when I call to Thee.

² My prayer is prepared -- incense before Thee, The lifting up of my hands -- the evening present.

³ Set, O Jehovah, a watch for my mouth, Watch Thou over the door of my lips.

⁴ Incline not my heart to an evil thing, To do habitually actions in wickedness, With men working iniquity, Yea, I eat not of their pleasant things.

⁵ The righteous doth beat me 'in' kindness. And doth reprove me, Oil of the head my head disalloweth not, For still my prayer 'is' about their vexations.

⁶ Their judges have been released by the sides of a rock, And they have heard my sayings, For they have been pleasant.

⁷ As one tilling and ripping up in the land, Have our bones been scattered at the command of Saul.

⁸ But to Thee, O Jehovah, my Lord, 'are' mine eyes, In Thee I have trusted, Make not bare my soul.

⁹ Keep me from the gin they laid for me, Even snares of workers of iniquity.

¹⁰ The wicked fall in their nets together, till I pass over!
