תהילים 16
| מִכְתָּם לְדָוִד שָֽׁמְרֵנִי אֵל כִּֽי־חָסִיתִי בָֽךְ׃ | 1 |
“A Michtham of David.” Preserve me, O God; for I have placed my trust in thee.
| אָמַרְתְּ לַֽיהוָה אֲדֹנָי אָתָּה טוֹבָתִי בַּל־עָלֶֽיךָ׃ | 2 |
[O my soul], thou hast said unto the Lord, Thou art my Lord: my happiness is not without thee;
| לִקְדוֹשִׁים אֲשֶׁר־בָּאָרֶץ הֵמָּה וְאַדִּירֵי כָּל־חֶפְצִי־בָֽם׃ | 3 |
[But] in the saints who are on the earth, and in the excellent—in them is all my delight.
| יִרְבּוּ עַצְּבוֹתָם אַחֵר מָהָרוּ בַּל־אַסִּיךְ נִסְכֵּיהֶם מִדָּם וּֽבַל־אֶשָּׂא אֶת־שְׁמוֹתָם עַל־שְׂפָתָֽי׃ | 4 |
Multiplied shall be the sorrows of those who give presents to another god: I will not pour out their drink-offerings of blood, nor bear their names upon my lips.
| יְֽהוָה מְנָת־חֶלְקִי וְכוֹסִי אַתָּה תּוֹמִיךְ גּוֹרָלִֽי׃ | 5 |
Thou, O Lord, art the portion of my inheritance, and my cup; thou hast drawn my lot.
| חֲבָלִים נָֽפְלוּ־לִי בַּנְּעִמִים אַף־נַחֲלָת שָֽׁפְרָה עָלֽ͏ָי׃ | 6 |
My possessions are fallen in agreeable places: yea, my heritage is pleasant to me.
| אֲבָרֵךְ אֶת־יְהוָה אֲשֶׁר יְעָצָנִי אַף־לֵילוֹת יִסְּרוּנִי כִלְיוֹתָֽי׃ | 7 |
I will bless the Lord, who hath given me counsel: also in the night seasons my reins admonish me.
| שִׁוִּיתִי יְהוָה לְנֶגְדִּי תָמִיד כִּי מִֽימִינִי בַּל־אֶמּֽוֹט׃ | 8 |
I have always set the Lord before me, that, being at my right hand, I might not be moved.
| לָכֵן ׀ שָׂמַח לִבִּי וַיָּגֶל כְּבוֹדִי אַף־בְּשָׂרִי יִשְׁכֹּן לָבֶֽטַח׃ | 9 |
Therefore is rejoiced my heart, and my spirit is glad: also my flesh shall rest in safety.
| כִּי ׀ לֹא־תַעֲזֹב נַפְשִׁי לִשְׁאוֹל לֹֽא־תִתֵּן חֲסִידְךָ לִרְאוֹת שָֽׁחַת׃ (Sheol h7585) | 10 |
For thou wilt not abandon my soul to the grave: thou wilt not suffer thy pious [servant] to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
| תּֽוֹדִיעֵנִי אֹרַח חַיִּים שֹׂבַע שְׂמָחוֹת אֶת־פָּנֶיךָ נְעִמוֹת בִּימִינְךָ נֶֽצַח׃ | 11 |
Thou wilt let me know the path of life: fulness of joy is in thy presence; pleasures are at thy right hand for evermore.
