Psalms 141

NEW JERUSALEM	Miqra 'al pi ha-Mesorah
1 [Psalm Of David] Yahweh, I am cal ing, hurry to me, listen to my voice when I cal to you.	1 מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִדיְהֹוָה קְרָאתִיךָ חוּשָׁה לִּיהַאֲזִינָה קוֹלִי בְּקׇרְאִי־לָֽךְ׃
2 May my prayer be like incense in your presence, my uplifted hands like the evening sacrifice.	2 תִּכּוֹן תְּפִלָּתִי קְטֹרֶת לְפָנֶיךָמַֽשְׂאַת כַּפַּי מִנְחַת־עָֽרֶב׃
3 Yahweh, mount a guard over my mouth, a guard at the door of my lips.	3 שִׁיתָה יְהֹוָה שׇׁמְרָה לְפִינִצְּרָה עַל־דַּל שְׂפָתָֽי׃
4 Check any impulse to speak evil, to share the foul deeds of evil-doers. I shal not sample theirdelights!	4 אַל־תַּט־לִבִּי לְדָבָר ׀ רָעלְהִתְעוֹלֵל עֲלִלוֹת ׀ בְּרֶשַׁעאֶת־אִישִׁים פֹּעֲלֵי־אָוֶןוּבַל־אֶלְחַם בְּמַנְעַמֵּיהֶֽם׃
5 May the upright correct me with a friend's rebuke; but the wicked shal never anoint my head with oil,for that would make me party to their crimes.	5 יֶהֶלְמֵֽנִי צַדִּיק ׀ חֶסֶד וְֽיוֹכִיחֵנִישֶׁמֶן רֹאשׁ אַל־יָנִי רֹאשִׁיכִּי־עוֹד וּתְפִלָּתִי בְּרָעוֹתֵיהֶֽם׃
6 They are delivered into the power of the rock, their judge, those who took pleasure in hearing mesay,	6 נִשְׁמְטוּ בִֽידֵי־סֶלַע שֹׁפְטֵיהֶםוְשָׁמְעוּ אֲמָרַי כִּי נָעֵֽמוּ׃
7 'Like a shattered mil stone on the ground our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol.'	7 כְּמוֹ פֹלֵחַ וּבֹקֵעַ בָּאָרֶץנִפְזְרוּ עֲצָמֵינוּ לְפִי שְׁאֽוֹל׃
8 To you, Yahweh, I turn my eyes, in you I take refuge, do not leave me unprotected.	8 כִּי אֵלֶיךָ ׀ יֱהֹוִה אֲדֹנָי עֵינָיבְּכָה חָסִיתִי אַל־תְּעַר נַפְשִֽׁי׃
9 Save me from the traps that are set for me, the snares of evil-doers.	9 שׇׁמְרֵנִי מִידֵי פַח יָקְשׁוּ לִיוּמֹקְשׁוֹת פֹּעֲלֵי אָֽוֶן׃
10 Let the wicked fal each into his own net, while I pass on my way.	10 יִפְּלוּ בְמַכְמֹרָיו רְשָׁעִיםיַחַד אָנֹכִי עַֽד־אֶעֱבֽוֹר׃
