[ Read](/kjv/psalms/141)[ Commentary](/study/psalms/141)[ Interlinear](/interlinear/psalms/141) Audio

 1 LORD, I cry unto thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto thee.

 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.

 5 Let the righteous smite me; *it shall be* a kindness: and let him reprove me; *it shall be* an excellent oil, *which* shall not break my head: for yet my prayer also *shall be* in their calamities.*

 6 When their judges are overthrown in stony places, they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.

 7 Our bones are scattered at the grave’s mouth, as when one cutteth and cleaveth *wood* upon the earth.

 8 But mine eyes *are* unto thee, O GOD the Lord: in thee is my trust; leave not my soul destitute.*

 9 Keep me from the snares *which* they have laid for me, and the gins of the workers of iniquity.

 10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst that I withal escape.*
 
[Psalms 140](/study/psalms/140) [Psalms 142](/study/psalms/142)

## Commentary

 To verse 1
 
141:1 [A Psalm of David.] LORD, I {a} cry unto thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto thee.
