1. Lord, I cry out to You;Make haste to me!Give ear to my voice when I cry out to You.
2. Let my prayer be set before You as incense,The lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.
3. Set a guard, O Lord, over my mouth;Keep watch over the door of my lips.
4. Do not incline my heart to any evil thing,To practice wicked worksWith men who work iniquity;And do not let me eat of their delicacies.
5. Let the righteous strike me;It shall be a kindness.And let him rebuke me;It shall be as excellent oil;Let my head not refuse it.For still my prayer is against the deeds of the wicked.
