Psalms 16

The Hope of the Faithful, and the Messiah’s Victory

A Michtam of David.

Preserve[a] me, O God, for in You I put my trust.

You Will Not Abandon My Soul

A Miktama of David.

Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge.

O my soul, you have said to the Lord,
“You are my Lord,
My goodness is nothing apart from You.”

I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord;
I have no good apart from you.”

As for the saints who are on the earth,
“They are the excellent ones, in whom is all my delight.”

As for the saints in the land, they are the excellent ones,
in whom is all my delight.b

Their sorrows shall be multiplied who hasten after another god;
Their drink offerings of blood I will not offer,
Nor take up their names on my lips.

The sorrows of those who run afterc another god shall multiply;
their drink offerings of blood I will not pour out
or take their names on my lips.

O Lord, You are the portion of my inheritance and my cup;
You [b]maintain my lot.

The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup;
you hold my lot.

The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places;
Yes, I have a good inheritance.

The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.

I will bless the Lord who has given me counsel;
My [c]heart also instructs me in the night seasons.

I bless the Lord who gives me counsel;
in the night also my heart instructs me.d

I have set the Lord always before me;
Because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved.

I have set the Lord always before me;
because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.

Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices;
My flesh also will [d]rest in hope.

Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole beinge rejoices;
my flesh also dwells secure.

For You will not leave my soul in [e]Sheol,
Nor will You allow Your Holy One to [f]see corruption.

For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol,
or let your holy one see corruption.f

You will show me the path of life;
In Your presence is fullness of joy;
At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.

You make known to me the path of life;
in your presence there is fullness of joy;
at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
