Psalm 141:1-3
Contemporary English Version

(A psalm by David.)

A Prayer for the Lord's Protection

1 I pray to you, Lord!
Please listen when I pray
    and hurry to help me.
2 (A) Think of my prayer
    as sweet-smelling incense,
and think of my lifted hands
    as an evening sacrifice.

3 Help me to guard my words
    whenever I say something.
