Give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto thee. Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense. Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips. Ps 141

Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise thy name. Ps 142

Hear my prayer, O Lord. Give ear to me in thy righteousness. And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight shall no man living be justified. Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness; for in thee do I trust. cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto thee. Deliver me, O Lord, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me. Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness. Quicken me, O Lord, for thy name’s sake: for thy righteousness’ sake bring my soul out of trouble [Bede: quicken thou me]. For I am thy servent. Ps 143
