Darby Bible Translation

  • Psalm 141
    A psalm of David.

    I call to you, Lord, come quickly to me;
    hear me when I call to you.
  • Come to Me Quickly!

    {A Psalm of David.} Jehovah, I have called upon thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I call unto thee.
  • May my prayer be set before you like incense;
    may the lifting up of my hands be like the evening sacrifice.
  • Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense, the lifting up of my hands as the evening oblation.
  • Set a guard over my mouth, Lord;
    keep watch over the door of my lips.
  • Set a watch, O Jehovah, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.
  • Do not let my heart be drawn to what is evil
    so that I take part in wicked deeds
    along with those who are evildoers;
    do not let me eat their delicacies.
  • Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practise deeds of wickedness with men that are workers of iniquity; and let me not eat of their dainties.
  • Let a righteous man strike me — that is a kindness;
    let him rebuke me — that is oil on my head.
    My head will not refuse it,
    for my prayer will still be against the deeds of evildoers.
  • Let the righteous smite me, it is kindness; and let him reprove me, it is an excellent oil which my head shall not refuse: for yet my prayer also is [for them] in their calamities.
  • Their rulers will be thrown down from the cliffs,
    and the wicked will learn that my words were well spoken.
  • When their judges are thrown down from the rocks, they shall hear my words, for they are sweet.
  • They will say, “As one plows and breaks up the earth,
    so our bones have been scattered at the mouth of the grave.”
  • Our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol, as when one cutteth and cleaveth [wood] upon the earth.
  • But my eyes are fixed on you, Sovereign Lord;
    in you I take refuge — do not give me over to death.
  • For unto thee, Jehovah, Lord, are mine eyes; in thee do I trust: leave not my soul destitute.
  • Keep me safe from the traps set by evildoers,
    from the snares they have laid for me.
  • Keep me from the snare which they have laid for me, and from the traps of the workers of iniquity.
  • Let the wicked fall into their own nets,
    while I pass by in safety.
  • Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst that *I* withal pass over.
