1 Yahweh, I have called on you.
Come to me quickly!
Listen to my voice when I call to you.
2 Let my prayer be set before you like incense;
the lifting up of my hands like the evening sacrifice.
3 Set a watch, Yahweh, before my mouth.
Keep the door of my lips.
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.
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.
6 Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock.
They will hear my words, for they are well spoken.
7 "As when one plows and breaks up the earth,
our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol."
8 For my eyes are on you, Yahweh, the Lord.
I take refuge in you.
Don’t leave my soul destitute.
9 Keep me from the snare which they have laid for me,
from the traps of the workers of iniquity.
10 Let the wicked fall together into their own nets
while I pass by.

1 A Psalm of David. LORD, I have called unto thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto thee.2 Let my prayer be set forth before thee [as] incense, the gift of my hands [as] the evening sacrifice.3 Set a watch, O LORD, upon my mouth; keep the door of my lips.4 Incline not my heart to [any] evil thing, to do works with ungodliness with the men that work iniquity, and let me not eat of their dainties.5 Let the righteous smite me in mercy, and let him reprove me: and let not [a] flattering [evil] prince anoint my head, for my prayer [shall] ever [be] against his evil.6 Their judges shall be thrown down from strong places; they shall hearken unto my words; for they are sweet.7 Our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol, as when one cuts and cleaves [wood] upon the earth.8 Therefore mine eyes [look] unto thee, O GOD the Lord; in thee is my trust; leave not my soul destitute.9 Keep me from the hands of the snare [which] they have laid for me, and from the snares of the workers of iniquity.10 Let the wicked fall together into their own nets, whilst I pass on [ahead] forever.:
