Psalms 16
Ready to read
1
[1]ⓐ Preserve me, O God, for in you Iⓑ take refuge.
2
I say to the LORD, “You are my Lord; ⓒI have no good apart from you.”
3
As forⓓ the saints in the land, they are the excellent ones, in whom is all my delight.[2]
4
The sorrows of those who run after[3] another god shall multiply; their drink offerings of blood I will not pour out orⓔ take their names on my lips.
5
The LORD isⓕ my chosen portion and myⓖ cup; you hold myⓗ lot.
6
ⓘ The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.
7
I bless the LORD whoⓙ gives me counsel; inⓚ the night also myⓛ heart instructs me.[4]
8
ⓜ I haveⓝ set the LORD always before me; because he is at myⓞ right hand, I shall not beⓟ shaken.
9
Therefore my heart is glad, and myⓠ whole being[5] rejoices; my flesh also dwells secure.
10
For you will not abandon my soul toⓡ Sheol, ⓢor let yourⓣ holy one seeⓤ corruption.[6]
11
You make known to meⓥ the path of life; in your presence there isⓦ fullness of joy; at your right hand areⓧ pleasures forevermore.
