16:1  A Miktam of David. Preserve me, O God, for in You I take refuge.
16:2  I have said to the Lord, “You are my Lord; my welfare has no existence outside of You.”
16:3  For the holy ones who are in the land, they are the majestic ones; in them is all my delight.
16:4  Those who chase after other gods, their sorrows will be multiplied; their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, nor lift their names on my lips.
16:5  The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup; You support my lot.
16:6  The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; yes, an inheritance is beautiful for me.
16:7  I will bless the Lord who has given me counsel; my affections also instruct me in the night seasons.
16:8  I have set the Lord always before me; because He is at my right hand, I will not be moved.
16:9  Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices; my flesh also will rest in security.
16:10  For You will not leave my soul in Sheol, nor will You suffer Your godly one to see corruption.
16:11  You will make known to me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy; at Your right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
