16:1 Michtam of David. Preserve me, O God: for in thee I have put my trust.
16:2 I said unto the LORD, Thou art my goodness: I have no goodness apart from thee;
16:3 to the saints that are in the earth and to the excellent: all my delight is towards them.
16:4 The sorrows of those that hasten after another god shall be multiplied; their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, nor take up their names into my lips.
16:5 The LORD is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup; thou dost maintain my lot.
16:6 The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a beautiful inheritance.
16:7 I will bless the LORD, who gives me counsel: my kidneys also instruct me in the night seasons.
16:8 I have set the LORD always before me: because when he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
16:9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices: my flesh also shall rest secure.
16:10 For thou wilt not leave my soul in Sheol; neither wilt thou suffer thy Merciful One to see corruption.
16:11 Thou wilt show me the path of life: in thy presence is fullness of joy; in thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
