| 16:1
| Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.
|
| 16:2
| O my soul, thou hast said unto the LORD, Thou art my Lord: my goodness
extendeth not to thee;
|
| 16:3
| But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom
is all my delight.
|
| 16:4
| Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their
drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my
lips.
|
| 16:5
| The LORD 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 the LORD, who hath given me counsel: my reins 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
shall not be moved.
|
| 16:9
| Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall
rest in hope.
|
| 16:10
| For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine
Holy One to see corruption.
|
| 16:11
| Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy;
at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
