< Psalms 16 >

1 Michtam of David. Keep me, O God; for I have taken refuge in Thee.
A miktam of David protect me O God for I have taken refuge in you.
2 I have said unto the LORD: 'Thou art my Lord; I have no good but in Thee';
You [fem] said to Yahweh [are the] Lord you good my not [is] on you.
3 As for the holy that are in the earth, they are the excellent in whom is all my delight.
To [the] holy [ones] who [are] in the land they and [the] majestic [ones] [whom] all delight my [is] in them.
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.
They will increase sorrows their [those who] another [god] they hurried after not I will pour out drink offerings their from blood and not I will take names their on lips my.
5 O LORD, the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup, Thou maintainest my lot.
Yahweh [is] [the] portion of possession my and cup my you [are] holding lot my.
6 The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.
Boundary lines they have fallen to me in pleasant [places] also an inheritance it is beautiful on me.
7 I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel; yea, in the night seasons my reins instruct me.
I will bless Yahweh who he has counseled me also nights they have instructed me kidneys my.
8 I have set the LORD always before me; surely He is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
I have placed Yahweh to before me continually for [he is] from right [hand] my not I will be shaken.
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth; my flesh also dwelleth in safety;
Therefore - it is glad heart my and it rejoiced honor my also body my it will dwell to security.
10 For Thou wilt not abandon my soul to the nether-world; neither wilt Thou suffer Thy godly one to see the pit. (Sheol h7585)
For - not you will abandon life my to Sheol not you will permit faithful [one] your to see [the] pit. (Sheol h7585)
11 Thou makest me to know the path of life; in Thy presence is fulness of joy, in Thy right hand bliss for evermore.
You will make known to me [the] path of life abundance of gladness [are] with presence your pleasant [things] [are] at right [hand] your perpetuity.
