Psalms
The Psalter is Israel’s hymnbook: lament, praise, thanksgiving, royal psalms, and wisdom. It trains the heart to speak to God in trouble and in joy, and it points ahead to the Messiah.

Psalms 141
1A Psalm of David. LORD, I cry to thee: make haste to me; give ear to my voice, when I cry to thee. 2Let my prayer be set forth before thee [as] incense; [and] the lifting up of my hands [as] the evening sacrifice. 3Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips. 4Incline not my heart to [any] evil thing, to practice wicked works with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties. 5Let the righteous smite me; [it shall be] a kindness: and let him reprove me; [it shall be] an excellent oil, [which] shall not break my head: for yet my prayer also [shall be] in their calamities. 6When their judges are overthrown in stony places, they shall hear my words; for they are sweet. 7Our bones are scattered at the grave's mouth, as when one cutteth and cleaveth [wood] upon the earth. 8But my eyes [are] to thee, O GOD the Lord: in thee is my trust; leave not my soul destitute. 9Keep me from the snare [which] they have laid for me, and the gins of the workers of iniquity. 10Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst I escape.
