A Psalm by David.

1 Yahweh, I have called on you.

Come to me quickly!

Listen to my voice when I call to you.

2 Let my prayer be set before you like incense;

the lifting up of my hands like the evening sacrifice.

3 Set a watch, Yahweh, before my mouth.

Keep the door of my lips.

4 Don’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.

5 Let 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.

6 Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock.

They will hear my words, for they are well spoken.

7 "As when one plows and breaks up the earth,

our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol."

8 For my eyes are on you, Yahweh, the Lord.

I take refuge in you.

Don’t leave my soul destitute.

9 Keep me from the snare which they have laid for me,

from the traps of the workers of iniquity.

10 Let the wicked fall together into their own nets

while I pass by.

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。
