Psalm 141:4

Protection From Sin And Sinners

³ Lord, set up a guard for my mouth;
keep watch at the door of my lips.
⁴ Do not let my heart turn to any evil thing
or perform wicked acts
with men who commit sin.
Do not let me feast on their delicacies.
⁵ Let the righteous one strike me—
it is an act of faithful love;
let him rebuke me—
it is oil for my head;
let me not refuse it.
Even now my prayer is against
the evil acts of the wicked.
