Psalms Chapter 16
|
||
|
|
1 A Poem by David. Preserve me, God, for I take refuge in you.
|
||
|
|
2 My soul, you have said to Yahweh, “You are my Lord. Apart from you I have no good thing.”
|
||
|
|
3 As for the saints who are in the earth, they are the excellent ones in whom is all my delight.
|
||
|
|
4 Their sorrows shall be multiplied who give gifts to another god. Their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, nor take their names on my lips.
|
||
|
|
5 Yahweh assigned my portion and my cup. You made my lot secure.
|
||
|
|
6 The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places. Yes, I have a good inheritance.
|
||
|
|
7 I will bless Yahweh, who has given me counsel. Yes, my heart instructs me in the night seasons.
|
||
|
|
8 I have set Yahweh always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
|
||
|
|
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my tongue rejoices. My body shall also dwell in safety.
|
||
|
|
10 For you will not leave my soul in Sheol, neither will you allow your holy one to see corruption.
|
||
|
|
11 You will show me the path of life. In your presence is fullness of joy. In your right hand there are pleasures forever more.
