Psalms 141

Psalms chapter 141 from the Douay-Rheims Bible, Challoner Revision

1 Let my supplication, O Lord, come near in thy sight: give me understanding according to thy word. 2 Let my request come in before thee; deliver thou me according to thy word. 3 My lips shall utter a hymn, when thou shalt teach me thy justifications. 4 My tongue shall pronounce thy word: because all thy commandments are justice. 5 Let thy hand be with me to save me; for I have chosen thy precepts. 6 I have longed for thy salvation, O Lord; and thy law is my meditation. 7 My soul shall live and shall praise thee: and thy judgments shall help me. 8 I have gone astray like a sheep that is lost: seek thy servant, because I have not forgotten thy commandments. 10 In my trouble I cried to the Lord: and he heard me.
