16:1  {Michtam of David.} Preserve me, O �God: for I trust in thee.
16:2  Thou my soul hast said to Jehovah, Thou art the Lord: my goodness extendeth not to thee; --
16:3  To the saints that are on the earth, and to the excellent thou hast said, In them is all my delight.
16:4  Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another: their drink-offerings of blood will I not offer, and I will not take up their names into my lips.
16:5  Jehovah is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.
16:6  The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.
16:7  I will bless Jehovah, who giveth me counsel; even in the nights my reins instruct me.
16:8  I have set Jehovah continually before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
16:9  Therefore my heart rejoiceth, and my glory exulteth; my flesh moreover shall dwell in hope.
16:10  For thou wilt not leave my soul to Sheol, neither wilt thou allow thy Holy One to see corruption.
16:11  Thou wilt make known to me the path of life: thy countenance is fulness of joy; at thy right hand are pleasures for evermore.
