Literal Standard Version
Psalms • Chapter 16
1
A MIKTAM OF DAVID. Preserve me, O God (Elohim), for I trusted in You.
2
You have said to YHWH, “You are my Lord”; My goodness is not above You;
3
For the holy ones who are in the land, || And the honorable, all my delight is in them.
4
Their griefs are multiplied, who have hurried backward; I do not pour out their drink-offerings of blood, || Nor do I take up their names on my lips.
5
YHWH is the portion of my share, and of my cup, || You uphold my lot.
6
Lines have fallen to me in pleasant places, || Indeed, a beautiful inheritance is for me.
7
I bless YHWH who has counseled me; Also in the nights my reins instruct me.
8
I placed YHWH before me continually, || Because He is at my right hand I am not moved.
9
Therefore my heart has been glad, || And my glory rejoices, || Also my flesh dwells confidently:
10
For You do not leave my soul to Sheol, || Nor give your Holy One to see corruption.
11
You cause me to know the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joys, || Pleasant things are by Your right hand forever!
