A Psalm by David.

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.
