Introduction
The psalmist prays that his devotions may be accepted, Psalm 141:1 , Psalm 141:2 . That he may be enabled so to watch that he do not offend with his tongue; and that he may be preserved from wickedness, Psalm 141:3 , Psalm 141:4 . His willingness to receive reproof, Psalm 141:5 . He complains of disasters, Psalm 141:6 , Psalm 141:7 . His trust in God, and prayer against his enemies, Psalm 141:8-10 .
This Psalm is generally attributed to David, and considered to have been composed during his persecution by Saul. Some suppose that he made it at the time that he formed the resolution to go to Achish, king of Gath; see 1 Samuel 26: It is generally thought to be an evening prayer, and has long been used as such in the service of the Greek Church. It is in several places very obscure.
