Oración a fin de ser guardado del mal

Salmo de David.

141 Jehová, a ti he clamado; apresúrate a mí;

Escucha mi voz cuando te invocare.

Suba mi oración delante de ti como el incienso,(A)

El don de mis manos como la ofrenda de la tarde.

Pon guarda a mi boca, oh Jehová;

Guarda la puerta de mis labios.

No dejes que se incline mi corazón a cosa mala,

A hacer obras impías

Con los que hacen iniquidad;

Y no coma yo de sus deleites.

Que el justo me castigue, será un favor,

Y que me reprenda será un excelente bálsamo

Que no me herirá la cabeza;

Pero mi oración será continuamente contra las maldades de aquellos.

Serán despeñados sus jueces,

Y oirán mis palabras, que son verdaderas.

Como quien hiende y rompe la tierra,

Son esparcidos nuestros huesos a la boca del Seol.

Por tanto, a ti, oh Jehová, Señor, miran mis ojos;

En ti he confiado; no desampares mi alma.

Guárdame de los lazos que me han tendido,

Y de las trampas de los que hacen iniquidad.

10 Caigan los impíos a una en sus redes,

Mientras yo pasaré adelante.

Give Ear to My Voice

A Psalm of David.

141 O Lord, I call upon you; (A)hasten to me!
    Give ear to my voice when I call to you!
Let (B)my prayer be counted as incense before you,
    and (C)the lifting up of my hands as (D)the evening sacrifice!

(E)Set a guard, O Lord, over my mouth;
    (F)keep watch over the door of my lips!
(G)Do not let my heart incline to any evil,
    to busy myself with wicked deeds
in company with men who (H)work iniquity,
    and (I)let me not eat of their delicacies!

(J)Let a righteous man strike me—it is a kindness;
    let him rebuke me—it is oil for my head;
    let my head not refuse it.
Yet (K)my prayer is continually against their evil deeds.
When their judges are (L)thrown over the cliff,[a]
    then they shall hear my words, for they are pleasant.
As when one plows and breaks up the earth,
    so shall our bones (M)be scattered at the mouth of Sheol.[b]

But (N)my eyes are toward you, O God, my Lord;
    (O)in you I seek refuge; leave me not defenseless![c]
Keep me from (P)the trap that they have laid for me
    and from the snares of evildoers!
10 Let the wicked (Q)fall into their own nets,
    while I pass by safely.
