< Psalms 16 >

1 A Secret Treasure of David. Preserve me, O God, for I did trust in Thee.
A miktam of David protect me O God for I have taken refuge in you.
2 Thou hast said to Jehovah, 'My Lord Thou [art];' My good [is] not for thine own sake;
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 honourable, 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 Multiplied are their griefs, [Who] have hastened backward; I pour not out their libations 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 Jehovah [is] the portion of my share, and of my cup, Thou — Thou dost 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, Yea, a beauteous 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 Jehovah who hath counselled 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 did place Jehovah before me continually, Because — 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 hath my heart been glad, And my honour doth rejoice, Also my flesh dwelleth confidently:
Therefore - it is glad heart my and it rejoiced honor my also body my it will dwell to security.
10 For Thou dost not leave my soul to Sheol, Nor givest thy saintly 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 Thou causest me to know the path of life; Fulness of joys [is] with Thy presence, Pleasant things by Thy right hand for ever!
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.
