詩篇 141
1 大衛的詩。 耶和華啊，我曾求告你， 求你快快臨到我這裏！ 我求告你的時候， 願你留心聽我的聲音！
“For the leader of the music. A psalm of David.” I cry to thee, O LORD! make haste unto me! Give ear to my voice, when I cry unto thee!
2 願我的禱告如香陳列在你面前！ 願我舉手祈求，如獻晚祭！
Let my prayer come before thee as incense, And the lifting-up of my hands, as the evening sacrifice!
3 耶和華啊，求你禁止我的口， 把守我的嘴！
Set a watch, O LORD! before my mouth; Guard the door of my lips!
4 求你不叫我的心偏向邪惡， 以致我和作孽的人同行惡事； 也不叫我吃他們的美食。
Let not my heart incline to any evil thing; Let me not practise wickedness with the doers of iniquity, And let me not eat of their delicacies!
5 任憑義人擊打我，這算為仁慈； 任憑他責備我，這算為頭上的膏油； 我的頭不要躲閃。 正在他們行惡的時候，我仍要祈禱。
Let the righteous smite me, —it shall be a kindness; Let him reprove me, and it shall be oil for my head; Let him do it again, and my head shall not refuse it; But now I pray against their wickedness!
6 他們的審判官被扔在巖下； 眾人要聽我的話，因為這話甘甜。
When their judges are hurled over the side of the rock, They shall hear how pleasant are my words.
So are our bones scattered at the mouth of the underworld, As when one furroweth and ploweth up the land. (Sheol h7585)
8 主－耶和華啊，我的眼目仰望你； 我投靠你，求你不要將我撇得孤苦！
But to thee do my eyes look, O Lord Jehovah! In thee is my trust; Let not my life be poured out!
9 求你保護我脫離惡人為我設的網羅 和作孽之人的圈套！
Preserve me from the snares which they have laid for me, And from the nets of evil-doers!
10 願惡人落在自己的網裏， 我卻得以逃脫。
Let the wicked fall together into their own traps, Whilst I make my escape!
