Whisper Transcript | Transcript Only Page

00:00:00.000 | I'm reading Psalm 141 from the Legacy Standard Bible, a Psalm of David.
00:00:10.360 | O Yahweh, I call upon you, hasten to me.
00:00:15.720 | Give ear to my voice when I call to you.
00:00:18.840 | May my prayer be established as incense before you, the lifting up of my hands as the evening
00:00:24.560 | offering.
00:00:26.280 | Set a guard, O Yahweh, over my mouth.
00:00:29.260 | Keep watch over the door of my lips.
00:00:32.440 | Do not incline my heart to any evil thing, to practice deeds in wickedness with men who
00:00:38.640 | are workers of iniquity.
00:00:40.960 | And do not let me eat of their delicacies.
00:00:44.720 | Let the righteous smite me in loving kindness and reprove me; it is oil upon my head.
00:00:51.440 | Let not my head refuse it, for still my prayer is against their evil deeds.
00:00:58.640 | Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the cliffs, and they hear my words, for
00:01:04.240 | they are pleasant.
00:01:06.000 | As when one plows and splits open the earth, our bones have been scattered at the mouth
00:01:11.280 | of Sheol.
00:01:13.060 | From my eyes or toward you, O Yahweh, O Lord, in you I take refuge.
00:01:19.680 | Do not pour out my soul to death.
00:01:23.160 | Keep me from the jaws of the trap which they have set for me, and from the snares of workers
00:01:28.620 | of iniquity.
00:01:30.680 | Let the wicked fall into their own nets, as for myself, meanwhile, I am passing by.
