Ps 16
1
A writing of David. - Keep me, O Lord; for I have hoped in you.
2
I said to the Lord, You are my Lord; for you has no need of my Gr. good deeds, or things goodness.
3
On behalf of the saints that are in his land, he has magnified all his pleasure in
them.
4
Their weaknesses have been multiplied; afterward they hasted. I will by no means assemble
their bloody meetings, neither will I make mention of their names with my lips.
5
The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: you are he who restores
my inheritance to me.
6
The lines have fallen to me in the best places, yea, I have a most excellent heritage.
7
I will bless the Lord who has instructed me; my reins too have chastened me even possibly, during the night, q. d. as long
as night lasted till night.
8
I foresaw the Lord always before my face; for he is on my right hand, that I should
not be moved.
9
Therefore my heart rejoiced an my tongue exulted; moreover also my flesh shall rest
in hope:
10
because you will not leave my soul in hell, neither Ac 13:35 will you suffer yours Holy One to see corruption.
11
You have made known to me the ways of life; you will fill me with joy with your countenance:
at your right hand there are delights for ever.
