Psalms 16
1 God, protect me because I go to you to keep me safe!
A miktam of David protect me O God for I have taken refuge in you.
2 I said to Yahweh, “You are my Lord; all the good things that I have come from you.”
You [fem] said to Yahweh [are the] Lord you good my not [is] on you.
3 Your people who live in this land are wonderful; I delight to be with them.
To [the] holy [ones] who [are] in the land they and [the] majestic [ones] [whom] all delight my [is] in them.
4 Those who choose to worship other gods will have many things that cause them to be sad. I will not join them when they make sacrifices [to their gods]; I will not even join them when they speak [MTY] the names of their gods.
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 Yahweh, you are the one whom I have chosen, and you give me great blessings. You protect me and control what happens to me.
Yahweh [is] [the] portion of possession my and cup my you [are] holding lot my.
6 Yahweh has given me a wonderful place in which to live; I am delighted with all the things that he has given me [MET].
Boundary lines they have fallen to me in pleasant [places] also an inheritance it is beautiful on me.
7 I will praise Yahweh, the one who teaches/disciplines me; even at night [he] you put in my mind what is right for me to do.
I will bless Yahweh who he has counseled me also nights they have instructed me kidneys my.
8 I know that Yahweh is always with me. He is beside me; so nothing will (perturb me/cause me to be worried).
I have placed Yahweh to before me continually for [he is] from right [hand] my not I will be shaken.
9 Therefore I am glad and I [MTY, DOU] rejoice; I can rest securely
Therefore - it is glad heart my and it rejoiced honor my also body my it will dwell to security.
10 because you, Yahweh, will not allow my soul/spirit to remain in the place where the dead people are; you will not allow me, your godly one, to stay there. (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 road that leads to [receiving eternal] life, and you will make me joyful when I am with you. I will have pleasure forever when I am (at your right hand/seated next to you).
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.
