Psalm 141
New Living Translation
Psalm 141
A psalm of David.
1 O Lord, I am calling to you. Please hurry!
Listen when I cry to you for help!
2 Accept my prayer as incense offered to you,
and my upraised hands as an evening offering.
3 Take control of what I say, O Lord,
and guard my lips.
4 Don’t let me drift toward evil
or take part in acts of wickedness.
Don’t let me share in the delicacies
of those who do wrong.
5 Let the godly strike me!
It will be a kindness!
If they correct me, it is soothing medicine.
Don’t let me refuse it.
But I pray constantly
against the wicked and their deeds.
6 When their leaders are thrown down from a cliff,
the wicked will listen to my words and find them true.
7 Like rocks brought up by a plow,
the bones of the wicked will lie scattered without burial.[a]
8 I look to you for help, O Sovereign Lord.
You are my refuge; don’t let them kill me.
9 Keep me from the traps they have set for me,
from the snares of those who do wrong.
10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets,
but let me escape.

Salmos 141
Nueva Traducción Viviente
Salmo de David.
141 Oh Señor, clamo a ti. ¡Por favor, apresúrate!
¡Escucha cuando clamo a ti por ayuda!
2 Acepta como incienso la oración que te ofrezco,
y mis manos levantadas, como una ofrenda vespertina.
3 Toma control de lo que digo, oh Señor,
y guarda mis labios.
4 No permitas que me deslice hacia el mal
ni que me involucre en actos perversos.
No me dejes participar de los manjares
de quienes hacen lo malo.
5 ¡Deja que los justos me golpeen!
¡Será un acto de bondad!
Si me corrigen, es un remedio calmante;
no permitas que lo rechace.
Pero oro constantemente
en contra de los perversos y de lo que hacen.
6 Cuando a sus líderes los arrojen por un acantilado,
los perversos escucharán mis palabras y descubrirán que son verdad.
7 Como las piedras que levanta el arado,
los huesos de los perversos quedarán esparcidos, sin que nadie los entierre.[a]
8 Busco tu ayuda, oh Señor Soberano.
Tú eres mi refugio; no dejes que me maten.
9 Líbrame de las trampas que me han tendido
y de los engaños de los que hacen el mal.
10 Que los perversos caigan en sus propias redes,
pero a mí, déjame escapar.

Psalm 141
New International Version
Psalm 141
A psalm of David.
1 I call to you, Lord, come quickly(A) to me;
hear me(B) when I call to you.
2 May my prayer be set before you like incense;(C)
may the lifting up of my hands(D) be like the evening sacrifice.(E)
3 Set a guard over my mouth,(F) Lord;
keep watch over the door of my lips.(G)
4 Do not let my heart(H) be drawn to what is evil
so that I take part in wicked deeds(I)
along with those who are evildoers;
do not let me eat their delicacies.(J)
5 Let a righteous man strike me—that is a kindness;
let him rebuke me(K)—that is oil on my head.(L)
My head will not refuse it,
for my prayer will still be against the deeds of evildoers.
