Psalm 141:4-6

EasyEnglish Bible

⁴ Do not let my mind want evil things.
Do not let me join with wicked people,
    to do the same bad things that they do.
I do not even want to eat their good food.
⁵ If a good man hits me because he loves me,
    he is being kind to me.
If he shows me that I have done a wrong thing,
    that it is like special oil on my head.^[a]
    I would not refuse it.
I continue to pray against what wicked people do.
⁶ They will throw their rulers down
    from high rocks.
Then they will agree that my words were true.
