2 Let my prayer be set forth as incense before thee; the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.
3 Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth; keep the door of my tips.
4 Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to be occupied in deeds of wickedness 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 as oil upon the head; let not my head refuse it: for even in their wickedness shall my prayer continue.
6 Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock; and they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.
7 As when one ploweth and cleaveth the earth, our bones are scattered at the grave's mouth.
8 For mine eyes are unto thee, O GODthe Lord: in thee do I put my trust; leave not my soul destitute.
