Psalm 141:2-4
New American Standard Bible
2 May my prayer be [a]counted as (A)incense before You;
The (B)raising of my hands as the (C)evening offering.
3 Set a (D)guard, Lord, [b]over my mouth;
Keep watch over the (E)door of my lips.
4 (F)Do not incline my heart to any evil thing,
To practice deeds [c]of wickedness
With people who (G)do wrong;
And (H)may I not taste their delicacies.

King James Version
2 Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.
3 Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.
4 Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practise wicked works with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties.
