Psalms 16
Berean Standard Bible
1Preserve me, O God,
for in You I take refuge. 2I said to the LORD, “You are my Lord;
apart from You I have no good thing.” 3As for the saints in the land,
they are the excellence
in whom all my delight resides. 4Sorrows will multiply
to those who chase other gods.
I will not pour out their libations of blood,
or speak their names with my lips. 5The LORD is my chosen portion and my cup;
You have made my lot secure. 6The lines of my boundary have fallen in pleasant places;
surely my inheritance is delightful. 7I will bless the LORD who counsels me;
even at night my conscience instructs me.* 8I have set * the LORD always before me.
Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. 9Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices;
my body also will dwell securely.* 10For You will not abandon my soul to Sheol,
nor will You let Your Holy One see decay.* 11You have made known to me the path of life;
You will fill me with joy in Your presence,*
with eternal pleasures at Your right hand.
