From Textus Receptus
Psa 141:1 <A Psalme of Dauid.> O God I call vpon thee, haste thee vnto me: geue eare vnto my voyce whylest I crye vnto thee. Psa 141:2 Let my prayer be directed before thy face [as] an incense: let the liftyng vp of mine handes [be] an euenyng sacrifice. Psa 141:3 Set a watch O God before my mouth: and kepe the doore of my lippes. Psa 141:4 Inclyne not myne heart to any euyll thyng, wherby I myght commit any vngodly act with men that be workers of iniquitie: and let me not eate of their delicates. Psa 141:5 I wishe that the ryghteous woulde smite me and reproue me: for it is louing kyndnesse. (141:6) But let not pretious baulmes breake mine head: for as yet euen my prayer is agaynst their wickednesse. Psa 141:6 (141:7) Let their iudges be thrust downe headlong from a rocke: then they wyll heare my wordes, for they be sweete. Psa 141:7 (141:8) Our bones lye scattered vpon the graues mouth: lyke as when one breaketh and heweth [wood] vpon the earth. Psa 141:8 (141:9) For mine eyes loke vnto thee O God the Lorde: in thee is my trust, cast not my soule out [of me.] Psa 141:9 (141:10) Kepe me from the snare which they haue layde foorth for me: and from the trappes of them that be workers of iniquitie. Psa 141:10 (141:11) Let the vngodly fall together into their owne nettes: but let me in the meane season alwayes escape [them.]
