1 LORD, I cry unto thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto thee.
2 Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.
3 Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.
4 Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practise wicked works with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties.
5 Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil, which shall not break my head: for yet my prayer also shall be in their calamities.
6 When their judges are overthrown in stony places, they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.
7 Our bones are scattered at the grave’s mouth, as when one cutteth and cleaveth wood upon the earth.
8 But mine eyes are unto thee, O GOD the Lord: in thee is my trust; leave not my soul destitute.
9 Keep me from the snares which they have laid for me, and the gins of the workers of iniquity.
10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst that I withal escape.
1 耶和华啊! 我呼求你, 求你快来帮助我; 我呼求你的时候, 求你留心听我的声音。(本节在《马索拉抄本》包括细字标题)
2 愿我的祷告好像香安放在你面前; 愿我的手高举好像献晚祭。
3 耶和华啊! 求你看守我的口, 把守我的嘴。
4 求你不要容我的心偏向恶事, 免得我和作孽的人一同行恶, 也不要使我吃他们的美食。
5 愿义人击打我, 这是出于慈爱; 愿他责备我, 这是膏我头的膏油, 我的头不会拒绝。我仍要为恶人的恶行祷告。
6 他们的官长被摔在山崖下的时候, 他们就要听我的话, 因为我的话甘美。
7 他们说: "我们的骨头被拋散在墓旁, 好像人犁田锄地时掘起的土块。"
8 主耶和华啊! 我的眼睛仰望你; 我投靠你, 求你不要使我丧命。
9 求你保护我脱离恶人为我所设的网罗, 和作孽的人的圈套。
10 愿恶人都落在自己的网罗里, 我却得以安然逃脱。
