< Psalms 16 >
1 A MIKTAM OF DAVID. Preserve me, O God, for I trusted in You.
A miktam of David protect me O God for I have taken refuge in you.
2 You have said to YHWH, “You [are] my Lord”; My goodness [is] not above You;
You [fem] said to Yahweh [are the] Lord you good my not [is] on you.
3 For the holy ones who [are] in the land, And the honorable, all my delight [is] in them.
To [the] holy [ones] who [are] in the land they and [the] majestic [ones] [whom] all delight my [is] in them.
4 Their griefs are multiplied, [who] have hurried backward; I do not pour out their drink-offerings of blood, Nor do I take up their names on 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 YHWH [is] the portion of my share, and of my cup, You uphold my lot.
Yahweh [is] [the] portion of possession my and cup my you [are] holding lot my.
6 Lines have fallen to me in pleasant places, Indeed, a beautiful inheritance [is] for me.
Boundary lines they have fallen to me in pleasant [places] also an inheritance it is beautiful on me.
7 I bless YHWH who has counseled me; Also [in] the nights my reins instruct me.
I will bless Yahweh who he has counseled me also nights they have instructed me kidneys my.
8 I placed YHWH before me continually, Because [He is] at my right hand I am not 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 has been glad, And my glory rejoices, Also my flesh dwells confidently:
Therefore - it is glad heart my and it rejoiced honor my also body my it will dwell to security.
10 For You do not leave my soul to Sheol, Nor give your Holy One to see corruption. (Sheol )
For - not you will abandon life my to Sheol not you will permit faithful [one] your to see [the] pit. (Sheol )
11 You cause me to know the path of life; In Your presence [is] fullness of joys, Pleasant things [are] by Your right hand forever!
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.
