詩篇 16
1 大衛的金詩。 上帝啊，求你保佑我， 因為我投靠你。
A Precious Psalm of David. Preserve me, O GOD, for I have sought refuge in thee.
2 我的心哪，你曾對耶和華說：你是我的主； 我的好處不在你以外。
Thou hast said unto Yahweh, My Lord, art thou! My goodness, mounteth not unto thee.
3 論到世上的聖民，他們又美又善， 是我最喜悅的。
It belongeth unto the holy ones, whom, in his own land, Yahweh, ennobleth, In whom is all his delight
4 以別神代替耶和華的， 他們的愁苦必加增； 他們所澆奠的血我不獻上； 我嘴唇也不提別神的名號。
They multiply their idols—another, have they purchased! I will not pour out their drink-offerings of blood, nor will I take up their names on my lips.
5 耶和華是我的產業， 是我杯中的分； 我所得的，你為我持守。
Yahweh, is mine allotted portion and my cup, Thou, art maintaining my lot.
6 用繩量給我的地界，坐落在佳美之處； 我的產業實在美好。
The lines, have fallen unto me, in pleasant places, Verily an inheritance that delighteth me.
7 我必稱頌那指教我的耶和華； 我的心腸在夜間也警戒我。
I will bless Yahweh, who hath counselled me, —Surely, by night, shall mine impulses admonish me.
8 我將耶和華常擺在我面前， 因他在我右邊，我便不致搖動。
I have set Yahweh before me continually, because he is on my right hand, I shall not be shaken!
9 因此，我的心歡喜，我的靈快樂； 我的肉身也要安然居住。
Therefore, hath my heart rejoiced, and mine honour exulted, Yea, my flesh, shall settle down securely;
For thou wilt not abandon my soul to hades, neither wilt thou suffer thy man of lovingkindness, to see corruption: (Sheol h7585)
11 你必將生命的道路指示我。 在你面前有滿足的喜樂； 在你右手中有永遠的福樂。
Thou wilt cause me to know, the path of life, —Fulness of joys before thee, Pleasures at thy right hand evermore.
