16
Michtam of David.
1 Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.
2 I have said unto the LORD, Thou art my Lord: I have no good beyond thee.
3 As for the saints that are in the earth, they are the excellent in whom is all my delight.
4 Their sorrows shall be multiplied that exchange the LORD for another god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take their names upon my lips.
5 The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.
6 The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.
7 I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel: yea, my reins instruct me in the night seasons.
8 I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall dwell in safety.
10 For thou wilt not leave my soul to Sheol; neither wilt thou suffer thine holy one to see corruption.
11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; in thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
