This OET Readers’ Version was designed to be used with the Literal Version alongside, so you won’t get the best understanding from this single viewpoint. This is still an early look into the drafted text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
141:1 Accepting correction
1 Yahweh, I called out to you. Come quickly to me.
≈ Listen to my voice when I call to you.
2 May my prayer rise to your face like incense.[ref]
≈ May my lifted hands be like the evening sacrifice.
3 Yahweh, place a guard over my mouth.
≈ Guard the door which is my lips.
4 Don’t let my heart bend toward any evil thing
≈ or participate in sinful activities
May I not eat any of their delicacies.
5 Let a righteous person hit me—it would be a kindness.
≈ Let them correct me—it will be soothing like lotion on my head.
Help me not to be defiant,
because my prayer is always against those who do wicked things.
6 When their rulers are thrown down from the cliffs,
the people will listen to my words because they’re pleasant.
7 Like when someone ploughs and breaks up the ground,
so our bones have been scattered at the entrance to the grave.
8 My eyes are on you, Yahweh, my master.
You’re my place of protection—don’t abandon my life.
9 Keep me from the trap that they’ve laid for me—
from the nets of those who do evil.
10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets
while I escape.
Rev 5:8:
8 When he’d taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders knelt down in front of the lamb. Each elder held a harp and a bowl that was full of incense (which symbolised the prayers of the believers).[ref]
