^1 (0) A psalm of David:

⁽¹⁾ Adonai, I have called you; come to me quickly!
Listen to my plea when I call to you.
² Let my prayer be like incense set before you,
my uplifted hands like an evening sacrifice.

³ Set a guard, Adonai, over my mouth;
keep watch at the door of my lips.
⁴ Don't let my heart turn to anything evil
or allow me to act wickedly
with men who are evildoers;
keep me from eating their delicacies.

⁵ Let the righteous strike me, let him correct me;
it will be an act of love.
Let my head not refuse such choice oil,
for I will keep on praying about their wickedness.
⁶ When their rulers are thrown down from the cliff,
[the wicked] will hear that my words were fitting.
⁷ As when one plows and breaks the ground into clods,
our bones are strewn at the mouth of Sh'ol.

⁸ For my eyes, Adonai, Adonai, are on you;
in you I take refuge; don't pour out my life.
⁹ Keep me from the trap they have set for me,
from the snares of evildoers.
¹⁰ Let the wicked fall into their own nets,
while I pass by in safety.
