ASV_Strong : Psalms 141
1.
2. Let my prayer[H8605] be set forth[H3559] as incense[H7004] before[H6440] thee[H4864]; The lifting up of my hands[H3709] as the evening[H6153] sacrifice[H4503].
3. Set[H7896] a watch[H8108], O Jehovah[H3068], before my mouth[H6310]; Keep[H5341] the door[H1817] of my lips[H8193].
4. Incline[H5186] not my heart[H3820] to any evil[H7451] thing[H1697], To practise[H5953] deeds[H5949] of wickedness[H7562] With men[H376] that work[H5949] iniquity[H205]: And let me not eat[H3898] of their dainties[H4516].
5. Let the righteous[H6662] smite[H1986] me[H2617], it shall be a kindness; And let him reprove[H3198] me[H8081], it shall be as oil upon the head[H7218]; Let not my head[H7218] refuse[H5106] it[H7451]: For even in their wickedness shall my prayer continue[H8605].
6. Their judges[H8199] are thrown[H8058] down by the sides[H3027] of the rock[H5553]; And they shall hear[H8085] my words[H561]; For they are sweet[H5276].
7. As when one ploweth[H6398] and cleaveth[H1234] the earth[H776], Our bones[H6106] are scattered[H6340] at the mouth[H6310] of Sheol[H7585].
8. For mine eyes[H5869] are unto thee[H3069], O Jehovah the Lord[H136]: In thee do I take refuge[H2620]; leave[H6168] not my soul[H5315] destitute[H6168].
9. Keep[H8104] me from the snare[H3027] which they have laid[H3369] for me[H4170], And from the gins of the workers[H6466] of iniquity[H205].
10. Let the wicked[H7563] fall[H5307] into their own nets[H4364], Whilst that I withal[H3162] escape[H5674].
