CHAPTER 16

A Miktam

of David.

Preserve me,

O God,

for

in You

I take refuge.

I said

to the LORD,

“You

are my Lord;

apart from You

I have no

good thing.”

As for the saints

in the land,

they

are the excellence

in whom all

my delight

resides.

Sorrows

will multiply

to those who chase

other gods.

I will not

pour out

their libations

of blood,

or

speak

their names

with

my lips.

The LORD

is my chosen portion

and my cup;

You

have made

my lot secure.

The lines

of my boundary

have fallen

in pleasant places;

surely

my

inheritance

is delightful.

I will bless

the LORD

who

counsels me;

even

at night

my conscience

instructs me.

I have set

the LORD

always

before me.

Because

He is at my right hand,

I will not

be shaken.

Therefore

my heart

is glad

and my tongue

rejoices;

my body

also

will dwell

securely.

For

You will not

abandon

my soul

to Sheol,

nor will You

let

Your Holy One

see

decay.

You have made known to me

the path

of life;

You will fill me

with joy

in Your presence

with eternal

pleasures

at Your right hand.
