PSALMS 141
1
Yahweh, I call out to you; please help me quickly! Listen to me when I am calling to you.
2
Accept my prayer as though it were incense being burned as an offering [SIM] to you. And accept me while I lift up my hands to pray to you like you accept sacrifices that I offer to you each evening [SIM].
3
Yahweh, do not allow me to say [MTY] things that are wrong; guard my lips.
4
Prevent me from wanting to do anything that is wrong, and from joining with wicked men when they want to do evil deeds [DOU]. Do not even allow me to share in eating delightful food with them!
5
It is all right if righteous people strike/hit me or rebuke me because they are trying to act kindly toward me to teach me to do what is right, but I do not want wicked people to honor me by anointing my head with olive oil; I am always praying that you will punish them because of the wicked deeds that they do.
6
When their rulers are thrown down from the top of rocky cliffs, people will know that what you, Yahweh, said about them is true.
7
Like a log that is split and cut into small pieces [SIM], their shattered bones will be scattered on the ground near other graves.
8
But Yahweh God, I continue to ask you to help me. I ask you to protect me; do not allow me to ◄die/be killed► now!
9
It is as though people have set traps for me; protect me from falling into those traps, It is as though they have spread nets to catch me; keep me from being caught in those nets.
10
I desire that wicked people will fall into the traps they have set to catch me while I escape from them.
