TEHILLIM 16: 1-10
16 Guard me, O Ĕl,
For I have taken refuge in You.
2I have said to HWHY,
“You are HWHY,
I have no good beside You.”
3 As for the set-apart ones who are on
the earth, They are the excellent ones,
in whom is all my delight.
4 The sorrows of those who run after
another one are increased;
I would not pour out their drink
offerings of blood,
Nor take up their names on my lips.
5HWHY is the portion of my
inheritance and my cup;
You uphold my lot.
6Boundary lines have fallen to me in
pleasant places;
Indeed, a good inheritance is mine.
7I bless HWHY who has given me
counsel;
My kidneys also instruct me in the
nights.
8I have set HWHY always before me;
Because He is at my right
hand I am not shaken.
9Therefore my heart was glad,
and my esteem rejoices;
My flesh also dwells in safety.
10 For you do not leave my being in the
grave,
