You Will Not Abandon My Soul
|
|
|
|
# Chapter 16
|
|
1. Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge.
|
|
|
|
2. I say to the LORD, "You are my Lord;
|
|
I have no good apart from you."
|
|
|
|
3. As for the saints in the land, they are the excellent ones,
|
|
in whom is all my delight.
|
|
|
|
4. The sorrows of those who run after another god shall multiply;
|
|
|
|
their drink offerings of blood I will not pour out
|
|
or take their names on my lips.
|
|
|
|
5. The LORD is my chosen portion and my cup;
|
|
you hold my lot.
|
|
|
|
6. The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
|
|
indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.
|
|
|
|
7. I bless the LORD who gives me counsel;
|
|
in the night also my heart instructs me.
|
|
|
|
8. I have set the LORD always before me;
|
|
because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.
|
|
|
|
9. Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being rejoices;
|
|
my flesh also dwells secure.
|
|
|
|
10. For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol,
|
|
or let your holy one see corruption.
|
|
|
|
11. You make known to me the path of life;
|
|
in your presence there is fullness of joy;
|
|
at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
