Psalm 141:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible

5 Let the righteous smite me: for that is a benefit: and let [a]him reprove me, and it shall be a precious oil that shall not break mine head: for within a while I shall even [b]pray in their miseries.

6 When their judges shall be cast down in stony places, they shall [c]hear my words, for they are sweet.

7 Our bones lie scattered at the [d]grave’s mouth, as he that heweth wood or diggeth in the earth.

Psalm 141:5-7
New International Version

5 Let a righteous man strike me—that is a kindness;
    let him rebuke me(A)—that is oil on my head.(B)
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,(C)
    and the wicked will learn that my words were well spoken.
7 They will say, “As one plows(D) and breaks up the earth,(E)
    so our bones have been scattered at the mouth(F) of the grave.”
