Psalm 141

^{Tools
1} A psalm of David. O Lord, I cry out to you. Come quickly to me! Pay attention to me when I cry out to you! ^{Tools
2} May you accept my prayer like incense, my uplifted hands like the evening offering!

^{Tools
3} O Lord, place a guard on my mouth! Protect the opening of my lips! ^{Tools
4} Do not let me have evil desires, or participate in sinful activities with men who behave wickedly. I will not eat their delicacies. ^{Tools
5} May the godly strike me in love and correct me! May my head not refuse choice oil! Indeed, my prayer is a witness against their evil deeds. ^{Tools
6} They will be thrown down the side of a cliff by their judges. They will listen to my words, for they are pleasant.

^{Tools
7} As when one plows and breaks up the soil, so our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol.

^{Tools
8} Surely I am looking to you, O sovereign Lord. In you I take shelter. Do not expose me to danger! ^{Tools
9} Protect me from the snare they have laid for me, and the traps the evildoers have set. ^{Tools
10} Let the wicked fall into their own nets, while I escape.
