1Yahweh, I have called on you. Come to me quickly! Listen to my voice when I call to you.

1

2Let my prayer be set before you like incense; the lifting up of my hands like the evening sacrifice.

2

3Set a watch, Yahweh, before my mouth. Keep the door of my lips.

3

4Don’t incline my heart to any evil thing, to practice deeds of wickedness with men who work iniquity. Don’t let me eat of their delicacies.

4

5Let the righteous strike me, it is kindness; let him reprove me, it is like oil on the head; don’t let my head refuse it; Yet my prayer is always against evil deeds.

5

6Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock. They will hear my words, for they are well spoken.

6

7“As when one plows and breaks up the earth, our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol.”

7

8For my eyes are on you, Yahweh, the Lord. In you, I take refuge. Don’t leave my soul destitute.

8

9Keep me from the snare which they have laid for me, from the traps of the workers of iniquity.

9

10Let the wicked fall together into their own nets, while I pass by.
