Psalm 141:4-6
Wycliffe Bible
4 Bow thou not [down] mine heart into words of malice; to excuse excusings in sin. With men working wickedness; and I shall not commune with the chosen men of them. (Help thou me not to turn my heart to words of malice; to make excuses for sins, and for those who do evil. I shall not commune with their chosen ones/I shall not feast with their chosen ones.)
5 A just man shall reprove me in mercy, and he shall blame me; but the oil of a sinner make not fat mine head. For why and yet my prayer is in the well pleasant things of them; (The righteous shall rebuke me in love, and they shall reproach me; but my head shall not be anointed with the oil of sinners. For my prayer is still against what is pleasing to them.)
6 for the doomsmen of them joined to the stone were sopped up. Hear they my words, for they were mighty. (And when their judges shall be thrown down from stony places, then the people shall listen to my words; for they be true.)

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.
