Psalm 141:4-6
International Children’s Bible
Psalm 141:4-6
International Children’s Bible
4 Don’t let me want to do evil
or join others in doing wrong.
Don’t let me eat
with those who do evil.
5 If a good man punished me, that would be kind.
If he corrected me,
that would be like having perfumed oil on my head.
I shouldn’t refuse it.
But I pray against those who do evil.
6 Let their leaders be thrown down the cliffs.
Then people will know that I have spoken the truth:
Psalm 141:4-6
New International Version
Psalm 141:4-6
New International Version
4 Do not let my heart(A) be drawn to what is evil
so that I take part in wicked deeds(B)
along with those who are evildoers;
do not let me eat their delicacies.(C)
5 Let a righteous man strike me—that is a kindness;
let him rebuke me(D)—that is oil on my head.(E)
My head will not refuse it,
for my prayer will still be against the deeds of evildoers.
6 Their rulers will be thrown down from the cliffs,(F)
and the wicked will learn that my words were well spoken.
