< Psalms 16 >

1 Preserve me, O God: for in you do I put my trust.
A miktam of David protect me O God for I have taken refuge in you.
2 O my soul, you have said to the LORD, You are my Lord: my goodness extends not to you;
You [fem] said to Yahweh [are the] Lord you good my not [is] on you.
3 But to the saints that are in the earth, and to 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 Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into 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 The LORD is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup: you maintain my lot.
Yahweh [is] [the] portion of possession my and cup my you [are] holding lot my.
6 The lines are fallen to me in pleasant places; yes, 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 has given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons.
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: because 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 rejoices: my flesh also shall rest in hope.
Therefore - it is glad heart my and it rejoiced honor my also body my it will dwell to security.
10 For you will not leave my soul in hell; neither will you suffer your Holy One to see corruption. (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 You will show me the path of life: in your presence is fullness of joy; at your right hand there are pleasures for ever more.
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.
