诗篇 16
1 大卫的金诗。 神啊，求你保佑我， 因为我投靠你。
A michtam of David. Protect me, God, for I take refuge in you.
2 我的心哪，你曾对耶和华说：你是我的主； 我的好处不在你以外。
I say to Yahweh, “You are my Lord; my goodness is nothing apart from you.
3 论到世上的圣民，他们又美又善， 是我最喜悦的。
As for the holy people who are on the earth, they are noble people; all my delight is in them.
4 以别神代替耶和华的， 他们的愁苦必加增； 他们所浇奠的血我不献上； 我嘴唇也不提别神的名号。
Their troubles will be increased, those who seek out other gods. I will not pour out drink offerings of blood to their gods or lift up their names with my lips.
5 耶和华是我的产业， 是我杯中的分； 我所得的，你为我持守。
Yahweh, you are my chosen portion and my cup. You hold onto my lot.
6 用绳量给我的地界，坐落在佳美之处； 我的产业实在美好。
Measuring lines have been laid for me in pleasant places; surely a pleasing inheritance is mine.
7 我必称颂那指教我的耶和华； 我的心肠在夜间也警戒我。
I will bless Yahweh, who counsels me; even at night my mind instructs me.
8 我将耶和华常摆在我面前， 因他在我右边，我便不致摇动。
I set Yahweh before me at all times, so I will not be shaken from his right hand!
9 因此，我的心欢喜，我的灵快乐； 我的肉身也要安然居住。
Therefore my heart is glad; my glory is rejoicing. Surely I will live in security.
For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol. You will not let your faithful one see the pit. (Sheol h7585)
11 你必将生命的道路指示我。 在你面前有满足的喜乐； 在你右手中有永远的福乐。
You teach me the path of life; abundant joy resides in your presence; delights abide in your right hand forever!”
