Psalm 16
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Keep me safe, O God,
|
|
|
|
for I have come to you for refuge.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. I said to the LORD, "You are my Master!
|
|
|
|
Every good thing I have comes from you."
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. The godly people in the land
|
|
|
|
are my true heroes!
|
|
|
|
I take pleasure in them!
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Troubles multiply for those who chase after other gods.
|
|
|
|
I will not take part in their sacrifices of blood
|
|
|
|
or even speak the names of their gods.
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. LORD, you alone are my inheritance, my cup of blessing.
|
|
|
|
You guard all that is mine.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. The land you have given me is a pleasant land.
|
|
|
|
What a wonderful inheritance!
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. I will bless the LORD who guides me;
|
|
|
|
even at night my heart instructs me.
|
|
|
|
|
|
8. I know the LORD is always with me.
|
|
|
|
I will not be shaken, for he is right beside me.
|
|
|
|
|
|
9. No wonder my heart is glad, and I rejoice.
|
|
|
|
My body rests in safety.
|
|
|
|
|
|
10. For you will not leave my soul among the dead
|
|
or allow your holy one to rot in the grave.
|
|
|
|
11. You will show me the way of life,
|
|
|
|
granting me the joy of your presence
|
|
and the pleasures of living with you forever.
