Psalms


16:1
 Michtam of David. Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.


16:2
 O my soul, thou hast said unto the LORD, Thou art my Lord: my goodness extendeth not to thee;


16:3
 But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.


16:4
 Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips.


16:5
 The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.


16:6
 The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.


16:7
 I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons.


16:8
 I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.


16:9
 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope.


16:10
 For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.


16:11
 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
