Psalm 141:7-9

International Standard Version

⁷ Just as one plows and breaks up the earth,
    our^[a] bones are scattered
        near the entrance to the place of the dead.^[b]
8 Nevertheless, my eyes are on you, Lord God,
    as I seek protection in you.
        Don’t leave me defenseless!
⁹ Protect me from the trap laid for me
    and from the snares of those who practice evil.
