Psalm 141:3-5

Modern English Version

³ Set a guard, O Lord, over my mouth;
    keep watch over the door of my lips.
⁴ Do not let my heart be drawn to any evil,
    to practice wicked deeds
with men who do iniquity,
    and do not let me eat of their delights.

⁵ Let the righteous man strike me;
    it shall be a kindness.
Let him rebuke me;
    it shall be oil for my head;
let my head not refuse it.
    For my prayer is continually against their evil deeds.
