Psalmorum 16
1 tituli inscriptio ipsi David conserva me Domine quoniam in te speravi
Michtam of David. Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.
2 dixi Domino Dominus meus es tu quoniam bonorum meorum non eges
[O my soul], thou hast said to the LORD, Thou [art] my LORD: my goodness [extendeth] not to thee;
3 sanctis qui sunt in terra eius mirificavit mihi; omnes voluntates meas in eis
[But] to the saints that [are] in the earth, and [to] the excellent, in whom [is] all my delight.
4 multiplicatae sunt infirmitates eorum postea adceleraverunt non congregabo conventicula eorum de sanguinibus nec memor ero nominum eorum per labia mea
Their sorrows shall be multiplied [that] hasten [after] another [god]: their drink-offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take their names into my lips.
5 Dominus pars hereditatis meae et calicis mei tu es qui restitues hereditatem meam mihi
The LORD [is] the portion of my inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.
6 funes ceciderunt mihi in praeclaris etenim hereditas mea praeclara est mihi
The lines have fallen to me in pleasant [places]; yes, I have a goodly heritage.
7 benedicam Domino qui tribuit mihi intellectum insuper et usque ad noctem increpaverunt me renes mei
I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night season.
8 providebam Dominum in conspectu meo semper quoniam a dextris est mihi ne commovear
I have set the LORD always before me: because [he is] at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
9 propter hoc laetatum est cor meum et exultavit lingua mea insuper et caro mea requiescet in spe
Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope.
10 quoniam non derelinques animam meam in inferno non dabis sanctum tuum videre corruptionem (Sheol h7585)
For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thy Holy One to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
11 notas mihi fecisti vias vitae adimplebis me laetitia cum vultu tuo delectatio in dextera tua usque in finem
Thou wilt show me the path of life: in thy presence [is] fullness of joy; at thy right hand [are] pleasures for evermore.
