1 God, come close. Come quickly! Open your ears—it's my voice you're hearing!
2 my raised hands are my evening prayers.
3 set a watch at the door of my lips.
4 or thoughtlessly fall into bad company. And these people who only do wrong— don't let them lure me with their sweet talk!
5 may the Kind One correct me, Don't let sin anoint my head. I'm praying hard against their evil ways!
6 make them face the music.
7 let their bones be scattered at the gates of hell.
8 I only have eyes for you. Since I've run for dear life to you, take good care of me.
9 from all their demonic subterfuge.
10 while I walk off without a scratch.
