My Morning Psalms!
Psalm 141
Give Ear to My Voice
A Psalm of David.
1  O Lord, I call upon you; hasten to me!
Give ear to my voice when I call to you!
2  Let my prayer be counted as incense before you,
and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice!
3  Set a guard, O Lord, over my mouth;
keep watch over the door of my lips!
4  Do not let my heart incline to any evil,
to busy myself with wicked deeds
in company with men who work iniquity,
and let me not eat of their delicacies!
5  Let a righteous man strike me—it is a kindness;
let him rebuke me—it is oil for my head;
let my head not refuse it.
Yet my prayer is continually against their evil deeds.
6  When their judges are thrown over the cliff,
then they shall hear my words, for they are pleasant.
7  As when one plows and breaks up the earth,
so shall our bones be scattered at the mouth of Sheol.
8  But my eyes are toward you, O God, my Lord;
in you I seek refuge; leave me not defenseless!
