1 Lord, 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, Lord, before my mouth.Keep the door of my lips.
4 Don’t incline my heart to any evil thing,to practise 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.
