A Miktam of David. Preserve me, O God, for in You I take refuge. |
|
2
|
I said to the LORD, “You are my Lord; apart from You I have no good thing.” |
|
3
|
As for the saints in the land, they are the excellence in whom all my delight resides. |
|
4
|
Sorrows will multiply to those who chase other gods. I will not pour out their libations of blood, or speak their names with my lips. |
|
5
|
The LORD is my chosen portion and my cup; You have made my lot secure. |
|
6
|
The lines of my boundary have fallen in pleasant places; surely my inheritance is delightful. |
|
7
|
I will bless the LORD who counsels me; even at night my conscience instructs me. |
|
8
|
I have set the LORD always before me. Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. |
|
9
|
Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will dwell securely. |
|
10
|
For You will not abandon my soul to Sheol, nor will You let Your Holy One see decay. |
|
11
|
You have made known to me the path of life; You will fill me with joy in Your presence, with eternal pleasures at Your right hand. |
