< Psalms 16 >
1 Michtam of David. Keep me, O God; for I have taken refuge in Thee.
大卫的金诗。 神啊,求你保佑我, 因为我投靠你。
2 I have said unto the LORD: 'Thou art my Lord; I have no good but in Thee';
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。
3 As for the holy that are in the earth, they are the excellent in whom is all my delight.
论到世上的圣民,他们又美又善, 是我最喜悦的。
4 Let the idols of them be multiplied that make suit unto another; their drink-offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take their names upon my lips.
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。
5 O LORD, the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup, Thou maintainest my lot.
耶和华是我的产业, 是我杯中的分; 我所得的,你为我持守。
6 The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.
用绳量给我的地界,坐落在佳美之处; 我的产业实在美好。
7 I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel; yea, in the night seasons my reins instruct me.
我必称颂那指教我的耶和华; 我的心肠在夜间也警戒我。
8 I have set the LORD always before me; surely He is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
我将耶和华常摆在我面前, 因他在我右边,我便不致摇动。
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth; my flesh also dwelleth in safety;
因此,我的心欢喜,我的灵快乐; 我的肉身也要安然居住。
10 For Thou wilt not abandon my soul to the nether-world; neither wilt Thou suffer Thy godly one to see the pit. (Sheol )
因为你必不将我的灵魂撇在阴间, 也不叫你的圣者见朽坏。 (Sheol )
11 Thou makest me to know the path of life; in Thy presence is fulness of joy, in Thy right hand bliss for evermore.
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。
