1Yahweh, I call out to you;
2Accept my prayer as though it were incense being burned as an offering [SIM] to you.
3Yahweh, do not allow me to say [MTY] things that are wrong;
4Prevent me from wanting to do anything that is wrong,
5It is all right if righteous people strike/hit me or rebuke me
6When their rulers are thrown down from the top of rocky cliffs,
7Like a log that is split and cut into small pieces [SIM],
8But Yahweh God, I continue to ask you to help me.
9It is as though people have set traps for me;
10I desire that wicked people will fall into the traps they have set to catch me
