A Psalmof David. LORD, I cryunto thee: make hasteunto me; give earunto my voice, when I cryunto thee. Let my prayerbe set forthbeforethee as incense; and the lifting upof my hands as the eveningsacrifice. Seta watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keepthe doorof my lips. Inclinenotmy heartto any evilthing, to practicewickedworkswithmenthat workiniquity: and let me noteatof their dainties. Let the righteoussmiteme; it shall be a kindness: and let him reproveme; it shall be an excellentoil, which shall notbreakmy head: foryetmy prayeralso shall be in their calamities. When their judgesare overthrownin stonyplaces, they shall hearmy words; forthey are sweet. Our bonesare scatteredat the grave's mouth, as whenone cuttethand cleaveth wood upon the earth. Butmine eyes are untothee, O GODthe Lord: in thee is my trust; leave not my soul destitute. Keepme fromthe snares which they have laidfor me, and the ginsof the workersof iniquity. Let the wickedfallinto their own nets, whilstthat Iwithalescape.
