A Psalm by David.
LORD, I have called on you. Psa 70:5Psa 40:13Psa 71:12Psa 143:7Psa 69:17-18Job 7:21Psa 22:19Psa 143:1
Come to me quickly!
Listen to my voice when I call to you.
Let my prayer be set before you like incense; Rev 8:3-4Rev 5:81Ti 2:8Dan 9:21Mal 1:11Pro 15:8Luk 1:9-10Psa 63:4
the lifting up of my hands like the evening sacrifice.
Set a watch, LORD, before my mouth. Jas 1:26Psa 39:1Mic 7:5Psa 34:13Jas 3:2Psa 71:8Psa 17:3-5
Keep the door of my lips.
Don’t incline my heart to any evil thing, Mat 6:13Psa 119:361Co 15:332Co 6:17Isa 63:171Ki 8:581Co 10:31Jas 1:13
to practice deeds of wickedness with men who work iniquity.
Don’t let me eat of their delicacies.
Let the righteous strike me, it is kindness; Ecc 7:5Rev 3:19Gal 6:1Pro 27:5-6Pro 25:12Pro 19:25Pro 9:8-9Gal 2:11-14
let him reprove me, it is like oil on the head;
don’t let my head refuse it;
Yet my prayer is always against evil deeds.
Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock. 2Ch 25:121Ch 10:1-71Ch 11:1-31Ch 12:381Ch 13:21Sa 31:1-82Sa 1:17-272Sa 2:4-6
They will hear my words, for they are well spoken.
“As when one plows and breaks up the earth, Psa 53:5Rom 8:36Psa 44:22Rev 11:8-91Sa 22:18-192Co 1:9Heb 11:37
our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol.” 1
For my eyes are on you, LORD, the Lord. Psa 123:1-22Ch 20:12Isa 41:17Psa 102:17Psa 25:15-17Jhn 14:18Psa 2:12Psa 143:3-4
I take refuge in you.
Don’t leave my soul destitute.
Keep me from the snare which they have laid for me, Luk 20:20Psa 119:110Psa 140:5Pro 13:14Psa 38:12Jer 18:22Psa 142:3
