Psalms 141:5

יֶֽהֶלְמֵ֥נִי צַדִּ֗יק חֶ֫סֶד וְי֥וֹכִיחֵ֑נִי שֶׁ֤מֶן רָאשׁ֘ אַל יָנִ֪י רֹאשִׁ֡י כִּי ע֤וֹד ׀ וּתְפִלָּתִ֗י בְּרָעוֹתֵיהֶֽם׃
yehelmeniy ṣadiyq ḥesed vyvokiyḥeniy shemen raʾsh ʾal yaniy roʾshiy kiy ʿvod vtpilatiy braʿvoteyhem
King James Version (KJV)

Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil, which shall not break my head: for yet my prayer also shall be in their calamities.

Modern English

Let a righteous man strike me — it is a kindness; let him rebuke me — it is oil for my head; let my head not refuse it. Yet my prayer is continually against their evil deeds.
