Psalm 141:2

Protection From Sin And Sinners

¹ Lord, I call upon You; hurry to me.
Listen to my voice when I call to You.
² 
Let my prayer be counted as incense before You;
The lifting up of my hands as the evening offering.
³
Set a guard, O Lord, over my mouth;
Keep watch over the door of my lips [to keep me from speaking thoughtlessly].
