verse #1

A Psalm by David. Yahweh, I have called on you. Come to me quickly! Listen to my voice when I call to you.


verse #2

Let my prayer be set before you like incense; the lifting up of my hands like the evening sacrifice.


verse #3

Set a watch, Yahweh, before my mouth. Keep the door of my lips.


verse #4

Don’t incline my heart to any evil thing, to practice deeds of wickedness with men who work iniquity. Don’t let me eat of their delicacies.


verse #5

Let the righteous strike me, it is kindness; let him reprove me, it is like oil on the head; don’t let my head refuse it; Yet my prayer is always against evil deeds.


verse #6

Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock. They will hear my words, for they are well spoken.


verse #7

“As when one plows and breaks up the earth, our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol.”


verse #8

For my eyes are on you, Yahweh, the Lord. I take refuge in you. Don’t leave my soul destitute.


verse #9

Keep me from the snare which they have laid for me, from the traps of the workers of iniquity.


verse #10

Let the wicked fall together into their own nets while I pass by.
