Psalm 16 — Psalms 16:5–11

Jehovah is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup:
Thou maintainest my lot.

The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places;
Yea, I have a goodly heritage.

I will bless Jehovah, who hath given me counsel;
Yea, my heart instructeth me in the night seasons.

I have set Jehovah always before me:
Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.

Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth:
My flesh also shall dwell in safety.

For thou wilt not leave my soul to Sheol;
Neither wilt thou suffer thy holy one to see corruption.

Thou wilt show me the path of life:
In thy presence is fulness of joy;
In thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
