Mazmur 16
1 Mazmur Daud. Jagalah aku, ya Allah, sebab pada-Mu aku berlindung.
The inscription of a title to David himself. Preserve me, O Lord, for I have put trust in thee.
2 Aku berkata, "Engkaulah Tuhanku, kebahagiaanku, tak ada yang melebihi Engkau!"
I have said to the Lord, thou art my God, for thou hast no need of my goods.
3 Kuhormati orang-orang suci di negeri ini; kesukaanku ialah tinggal bersama mereka.
To the saints, who are in his land, he hath made wonderful all my desires in them.
4 Biarlah orang yang menyembah dewa-dewa bertambah-tambah kesedihannya. Aku tak mau berkurban kepada dewa-dewa, bahkan tak mau menyebut nama mereka.
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.
5 TUHAN, Engkau saja yang kumiliki; Engkau memberi segala yang kuperlukan, nasibku ada di tangan-Mu.
The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup: it is thou that wilt restore my inheritance to me.
6 Sungguh indah pemberian-Mu bagiku, sangat menyenangkan hatiku!
The lines are fallen unto me in goodly places: for my inheritance is goodly to me.
7 Aku memuji TUHAN yang menasihati aku; di waktu malam pun suara hatiku mengajari aku.
I will bless the Lord, who hath given me understanding: moreover my reins also have corrected me even till night.
8 Aku selalu ingat kepada TUHAN; Ia ada di sampingku, maka aku tidak goyah.
I set the Lord always in my sight: for he is at my right hand, that I be not moved.
9 Sebab itu hatiku gembira dan jiwaku bersorak, dan tubuhku beristirahat dengan tentram.
Therefore my heart hath been glad, and my tongue hath rejoiced: moreover my flesh also shall rest in hope.
10 Sebab Engkau tidak membiarkan aku mati; orang yang Kaukasihi tidak Kaubiarkan binasa. (Sheol h7585)
Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; nor wilt then give thy holy one to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
11 Kautunjukkan kepadaku jalan menuju kehidupan; pada-Mu aku mendapat kegembiraan berlimpah dan kebahagiaan untuk selama-lamanya.
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.
