Beautiful – Psalm 16

1Preserve me, O God, for in you I hide.
2Unto the LORD, I say “You are my Lord.”
I have no good apart from you.
3The saints in the land are the excellent ones;
All my joy is in them.

4They multiply their sorrows –
Those chasing other gods.
Their drink off’rings of blood
I will not pour out,
Or take their names on my lips.

5The LORD is my portion; my heritage and my cup.
You hold my lot; 6the lines have fallen for me
In pleasant places; yes, I have an inheritance that is
Beautiful!

7I bless the LORD who counsels me;
And in the night my heart teaches me.
8I’ve set the LORD before me always;
And now because he is at my right hand,
I shall not be moved!

9My heart therefore is glad; my glory exults.
My flesh also now is dwelling secure.
10For you won’t leave my soul to Sheol
Or let your godly one see the pit.

11The pathway of life you make known unto me;
In your presence, there is fullness of joy.
And at your right hand, there are pleasures that last forevermore; Evermore!
