141:1 Quick, Lord, answer me—for I have prayed. Listen when I cry to you for help!
141:2 Regard my prayer as my evening sacrifice and as incense wafting up to you.
141:3 Help me, Lord, to keep my mouth shut and my lips sealed.
141:4 Take away my lust for evil things; don’t let me want to be with sinners, doing what they do, sharing their delicacies.
141:5 Let the godly smite me! It will be a kindness! If they reprove me, it is medicine! Don’t let me refuse it. But I am in constant prayer against the wicked and their deeds.
141:6 When their leaders are condemned, and their bones are strewn across the ground, then these men will finally listen to me and know that I am trying to help them.
141:7 When their leaders are condemned, and their bones are strewn across the ground, then these men will finally listen to me and know that I am trying to help them.
141:8 I look to you for help, O Lord God. You are my refuge. Don’t let them slay me.
141:10 Let them fall into their own snares, while I escape.
