- 1Preserve me, O God, for in you I put my trust.
- 2O my soul, you have said to the LORD, 'You are my Lord; my goodness does not extend to you;'
- 3But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.
- 4The sorrows of those who run after another god shall be multiplied. I will not pour out their drink offerings of blood, nor will I speak their names with my lips.
- 5The LORD is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup; you maintain my lot.
- 6The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; yes, I have a goodly heritage.
- 7I will bless the LORD, who has given me counsel; my heart also instructs me in the night seasons.
- 8I have set the LORD always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
- 9Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices; my flesh also shall rest in hope.
- 10For you will not leave my soul in hell; neither will you allow your Holy One to see corruption.
- 11You will show me the path of life; in your presence is fullness of joy; at your right hand there are pleasures forevermore.
