"Set a watch, O Jehovah, before my mouth; Keep the door of my lips. "
— Psalms 141:3, American Standard Version
“Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.”
“Set a watch, Yahweh, before my mouth. Keep the door of my lips.”
“O LORD, place a guard on my mouth! Protect the opening of my lips!”
“In his sight I pour out my prayer, and before him I declare my trouble:”
“O Lord, keep a watch over my mouth; keep the door of my lips.”
“Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.”
Jehovah, I have called upon thee; make haste unto me: Give ear unto my voice, when I call unto thee.
Let my prayer be set forth as incense before thee; The lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.
Set a watch, O Jehovah, before my mouth; Keep the door of my lips.
Incline not my heart to any evil thing, To practise deeds of wickedness With men that work iniquity: And let me not eat of their dainties.
Let the righteous smite me, it shall bea kindness; And let him reprove me, it shall be asoil upon the head; Let not my head refuse it: For even in their wickedness shall my prayer continue.
Their judges are thrown down by the sides of the rock; And they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.
