Psalm 141
New International Version

Psalm 141

A psalm of David.

1 I call to you, Lord, come quickly(A) to me;
    hear me(B) when I call to you.
2 May my prayer be set before you like incense;(C)
    may the lifting up of my hands(D) be like the evening sacrifice.(E)

3 Set a guard over my mouth,(F) Lord;
    keep watch over the door of my lips.(G)
4 Do not let my heart(H) be drawn to what is evil
    so that I take part in wicked deeds(I)
along with those who are evildoers;
    do not let me eat their delicacies.(J)

5 Let a righteous man strike me—that is a kindness;
    let him rebuke me(K)—that is oil on my head.(L)
My head will not refuse it,
    for my prayer will still be against the deeds of evildoers.

6 Their rulers will be thrown down from the cliffs,(M)
    and the wicked will learn that my words were well spoken.
7 They will say, “As one plows(N) and breaks up the earth,(O)
    so our bones have been scattered at the mouth(P) of the grave.”

8 But my eyes are fixed(Q) on you, Sovereign Lord;
    in you I take refuge(R)—do not give me over to death.
9 Keep me safe(S) from the traps set by evildoers,(T)
    from the snares(U) they have laid for me.
10 Let the wicked fall(V) into their own nets,
    while I pass by in safety.(W)

詩篇 141
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)

求上帝蔭庇

大衛的詩。

141 耶和華啊，
我向你呼求，求你快來幫助我；
我向你呼求的時候，求你垂聽。
2 願我的禱告如香升到你面前，
願我舉手所獻的禱告如同晚祭。
3 耶和華啊，
求你守住我的口，
看住我的嘴。
4 耶和華啊，求你不要讓我的心偏向邪惡，
免得我與惡人同流合污；
也不要讓我吃他們的美食。
5 我情願受義人出於愛心的責打，
他們的責打是良藥，
我不會逃避。
我要不斷地用禱告抵擋惡人的行徑。
6 他們的首領被拋下懸崖的時候，
他們就會知道我所言不虛。
7 那些惡人的骨頭散落在墓旁，
好像耕田翻起的土塊。
8 主耶和華啊，
我仰望你，我投靠你，
求你不要讓我遭害。
9 求你不要使我落入惡人設下的網羅，
不要掉進他們的陷阱。
10 願他們作繭自縛，
而我可以安然逃脫。

Prayer for Preservation from Evil

A Psalm of David.

141 I call upon thee, O Lord; make haste to me!
    Give ear to my voice, when I call to thee!
2 Let my prayer be counted as incense before thee,
    and the lifting up of my hands as an evening sacrifice!

3 Set a guard over my mouth, O Lord,
    keep watch over the door of my lips!
4 Incline not my heart to any evil,
    to busy myself with wicked deeds
in company with men who work iniquity;
    and let me not eat of their dainties!

5 Let a good man strike or rebuke me in kindness,
    but let the oil of the wicked never anoint my head;[a]
    for my prayer is continually[b] against their wicked deeds.
6 When they are given over to those who shall condemn them,
    then they shall learn that the word of the Lord is true.
7 As a rock which one cleaves and shatters on the land,
    so shall their bones be strewn at the mouth of Sheol.[c]

8 But my eyes are toward thee, O Lord God;
    in thee I seek refuge; leave me not defenseless!
9 Keep me from the trap which they have laid for me,
    and from the snares of evildoers!
10 Let the wicked together fall into their own nets,
    while I escape.
