[1] O God I call vpon thee, haste thee vnto me: geue eare vnto my voyce whylest I crye vnto thee[2]Let my prayer be directed before thy face [as] an incense: let the liftyng vp of mine handes [be] an euenyng sacrifice[3]Set a watch O God before my mouth: and kepe the doore of my lippes[4]Inclyne not myne heart to any euyll thyng, wherby I myght commit any vngodly act with men that be workers of iniquitie: and let me not eate of their delicates[5]I wishe that the ryghteous woulde smite me and reproue me: for it is louing kyndnesse. (141:6) But let not pretious baulmes breake mine head: for as yet euen my prayer is agaynst their wickednesse[6](141:7) Let their iudges be thrust downe headlong from a rocke: then they wyll heare my wordes, for they be sweete[7](141:8) Our bones lye scattered vpon the graues mouth: lyke as when one breaketh and heweth [wood] vpon the earth[8](141:9) For mine eyes loke vnto thee O God the Lorde: in thee is my trust, cast not my soule out [of me.[9](141:10) Kepe me from the snare which they haue layde foorth for me: and from the trappes of them that be workers of iniquitie[10](141:11) Let the vngodly fall together into their owne nettes: but let me in the meane season alwayes escape [them.
