Psalm 16
You are my safety, O Godde,
I can trust you.
I say to you, my Guardian, “You are
my Protector;
you are the source of all that is
good.”
The high and holy ones bear witness,
you delight in their integrity …
Those who seek other gods suffer –
I will not pour out libations to idols;
their names have no place on my lips.
Holy One, you alone receive my portion,
my lifted cup;
you alone make me secure.
You have created a pleasant boundary
around me,
you have granted me a delightful
inheritance.
I praise you, Holy One, as you counsel
me;
at night you speak to my inmost being.
I will always keep my eyes on you, the
Holy One,
with you at my side I will not collapse
…
My heart rejoices, my soul exults
and my body rests secure …
You will not abandon me to Sheol,
nor let your faithful one be broken to
pieces.
You guide me on the path of life,
you fill me with the joy of your
presence;
your right hand offers eternal delight.
