Preserve me, O God, for in thee do I take refuge.

Thou my soul have said to Jehovah, Thou are my Lord. I have no good beyond thee.
3 To [the] holy [ones] who [are] in the land they and [the] majestic [ones] [whom] all delight my [is] in them.
As for the sanctified who are in the earth, they are the excellent in whom is all my delight.
4 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.
Their sorrows shall be multiplied who give gifts for another god. Their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, nor take their names upon my lips.
5 Yahweh [is] [the] portion of possession my and cup my you [are] holding lot my.
Jehovah is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup. Thou maintain my lot.
6 Boundary lines they have fallen to me in pleasant [places] also an inheritance it is beautiful on me.
The lines are fallen to me in pleasant places. Yea, I have a fine heritage.
7 I will bless Yahweh who he has counseled me also nights they have instructed me kidneys my.
I will bless Jehovah, who has given me counsel. Yea, my heart instructs me in the night seasons.
8 I have placed Yahweh to before me continually for [he is] from right [hand] my not I will be shaken.
I beheld Jehovah always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
9 Therefore - it is glad heart my and it rejoiced honor my also body my it will dwell to security.
Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices. My flesh also shall dwell in hope.
10 For - not you will abandon life my to Sheol not you will permit faithful [one] your to see [the] pit. (Sheol h7585)
For thou will not leave my soul to Sheol, nor will thou allow thy holy man to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
11 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.
Thou made known to me the path of life. Thou will fill me of joy with thy countenance.
