Psalms 141

1 A PSALM OF DAVID. O YHWH, I have called You, hurry to me, Give ear [to] my voice when I call to You.

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！

2 My prayer is prepared—incense before You, The lifting up of my hands—the evening present.

願我的禱告如香陳列在你面前！ 願我舉手祈求，如獻晚祭！

3 Set, O YHWH, a watch for my mouth, Watch over the door of my lips.

耶和華啊，求你禁止我的口， 把守我的嘴！

4 Do not incline my heart to an evil thing, To habitually do actions in wickedness, Working iniquity with men, Indeed, I do not eat of their pleasant things.

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。

5 The righteous beat me [in] kindness. And reprove me, My head does not disallow oil of the head, For my prayer [is] still about their distress.

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。

6 Their judges have been released by the sides of a rock, And they have heard my sayings, For they have been pleasant.

他們的審判官被扔在巖下； 眾人要聽我的話，因為這話甘甜。

7 As one tilling and ripping up in the land, Have our bones been scattered at the command of Saul. (Sheol h7585)

我們的骨頭散在墓旁， 好像人耕田、刨地的土塊。 (Sheol h7585)

8 But to You, O YHWH, my Lord, [are] my eyes, In You I have trusted, Do not make my soul bare.

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！

9 Keep me from the trap they laid for me, Even snares of workers of iniquity.

求你保護我脫離惡人為我設的網羅 和作孽之人的圈套！

10 The wicked fall in their dragnets together, until I pass over!

願惡人落在自己的網裏， 我卻得以逃脫。
