< תהילים 16 >

מִכְתָּם לְדָוִד שׇֽׁמְרֵנִי אֵל כִּֽי־חָסִיתִי בָֽךְ׃ 1
The inscription of a title to David himself. Preserve me, O Lord, for I have put trust in thee.
אָמַרְתְּ לַֽיהֹוָה אֲדֹנָי אָתָּה טוֹבָתִי בַּל־עָלֶֽיךָ׃ 2
I have said to the Lord, thou art my God, for thou hast no need of my goods.
לִקְדוֹשִׁים אֲשֶׁר־בָּאָרֶץ הֵמָּה וְאַדִּירֵי כׇּל־חֶפְצִי־בָֽם׃ 3
To the saints, who are in his land, he hath made wonderful all my desires in them.
יִרְבּוּ עַצְּבוֹתָם אַחֵר מָהָרוּ בַּל־אַסִּיךְ נִסְכֵּיהֶם מִדָּם וּֽבַל־אֶשָּׂא אֶת־שְׁמוֹתָם עַל־שְׂפָתָֽי׃ 4
Their infirmities were multiplied: afterwards they made haste. I will not gather together their meetings for blood offerings: nor will I be mindful of their names by my lips.
יְֽהֹוָה מְנָת־חֶלְקִי וְכוֹסִי אַתָּה תּוֹמִיךְ גּוֹרָלִֽי׃ 5
The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup: it is thou that wilt restore my inheritance to me.
חֲבָלִים נָֽפְלוּ־לִי בַּנְּעִמִים אַף־נַחֲלָת שָֽׁפְרָה עָלָֽי׃ 6
The lines are fallen unto me in goodly places: for my inheritance is goodly to me.
אֲבָרֵךְ אֶת־יְהֹוָה אֲשֶׁר יְעָצָנִי אַף־לֵילוֹת יִסְּרוּנִי כִלְיוֹתָֽי׃ 7
I will bless the Lord, who hath given me understanding: moreover my reins also have corrected me even till night.
שִׁוִּיתִי יְהֹוָה לְנֶגְדִּי תָמִיד כִּי מִֽימִינִי בַּל־אֶמּֽוֹט׃ 8
I set the Lord always in my sight: for he is at my right hand, that I be not moved.
לָכֵן ׀ שָׂמַח לִבִּי וַיָּגֶל כְּבוֹדִי אַף־בְּשָׂרִי יִשְׁכֹּן לָבֶֽטַח׃ 9
Therefore my heart hath been glad, and my tongue hath rejoiced: moreover my flesh also shall rest in hope.
כִּי ׀ לֹא־תַעֲזֹב נַפְשִׁי לִשְׁאוֹל לֹֽא־תִתֵּן חֲסִידְךָ לִרְאוֹת שָֽׁחַת׃ (Sheol h7585) 10
Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; nor wilt then give thy holy one to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
תּֽוֹדִיעֵנִי אֹרַח חַיִּים שֹׂבַע שְׂמָחוֹת אֶת־פָּנֶיךָ נְעִמוֹת בִּימִינְךָ נֶֽצַח׃ 11
Thou hast made known to me the ways of life, thou shalt fill me with joy with thy countenance: at thy right hand are delights even to the end.
