Psalms 141

1 A Psalm of David. O Lord, I have cried out to you, hear me. Attend to my voice, when I cry out to you.

Jehová, a ti he llamado, apresúrate a mí: escucha mi voz, cuando te llamare.

2 Let my prayer be guided like incense in your sight: the lifting up of my hands, like the evening sacrifice.

Sea enderezada mi oración delante de ti como un perfume: el don de mis manos como un presente de la tarde.

3 O Lord, station a guard over my mouth and a door enclosing my lips.

Pon, o! Jehová, guarda a mi boca: guarda la puerta de mis labios.

4 Do not turn aside my heart to words of malice, to making excuses for sins, with men who work iniquity; and I will not communicate, even with the best of them.

No inclines mi corazón a cosa mala: a hacer obras con impiedad con los varones que obran iniquidad; y no coma yo de sus delicias.

5 The just one will correct me with mercy, and he will rebuke me. But do not allow the oil of the sinner to fatten my head. For my prayer will still be toward their good will.

Hiérame el justo con misericordia, y repréndame; y aceite de cabeza no unte mi cabeza: porque aun también mi oración será contra sus males.

6 Their judges have been engulfed, joined to the rocks. They will hear my words, which have prevailed,

Sean derribados en lugares peñascosos sus jueces; y oigan mis palabras que son suaves.

7 as when the lava of the earth has erupted above ground. Our bones have been scattered beside Hell. (Sheol h7585)

Como quien parte e hiende leños en tierra, son esparcidos nuestros huesos a la boca de la sepultura: (Sheol h7585)

8 For Lord, O Lord, my eyes look to you. In you, I have hoped. Do not take away my soul.

Por tanto a ti, o! Jehová, Señor, miran mis ojos, en ti he confiado: no tengas en poco a mi alma.

9 Protect me from the snare that they have set up for me and from the scandals of those who work iniquity.

Guárdame de las manos del lazo que me han tendido; y de los lazos de los que obran iniquidad.

10 The sinners will fall into his net. I am alone, until I pass over.

Caigan los impíos a una en sus redes, mientras yo pasaré para siempre.
