Psalms 16
1
Preserve me, God, for I take refuge in you.
2
My soul, you have said to the LORD, “You are my Lord.
3
As for the saints who are on the earth,
4
Their sorrows shall be multiplied who give gifts to another god.
5
The LORD assigned my portion and my cup.
6
The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places.
7
I will bless the LORD, who has given me counsel.
8
I have set the LORD always before me.
9
Therefore my heart is glad, and my tongue rejoices.
10
For you will not leave my soul in Sheol,
11
You will show me the path of life.
