Psalm 16:1-Psalm 17:1 - Confidence In The Lord
1 Preserve me, O GOD, for I have sought refuge in thee. 3 It belongeth unto the holy ones, whom, in his own land, Yahweh, ennobleth, In whom is all his delight 4 They multiply their idols - another, have they purchased! I will not pour out their drink-offerings of blood, nor will I take up their names on my lips.
5 Yahweh, is mine allotted portion and my cup, Thou, art maintaining my lot. 6 The lines, have fallen unto me, in pleasant places, Verily an inheritance that delighteth me.
7 I will bless Yahweh, who hath counselled me, - Surely, by night, shall mine impulses admonish me. 8 I have set Yahweh before me continually, because he is on my right hand, I shall not be shaken!
9 Therefore, hath my heart rejoiced, and mine honour exulted, Yea, my flesh, shall settle down securely; 10 For thou wilt not abandon my soul to hades, neither wilt thou suffer thy man of lovingkindness, to see corruption: 11 Thou wilt cause me to know, the path of life, - Fulness of joys before thee, Pleasures at thy right hand evermore.
1 Hear, O Yahweh, the right, Attend to my loud cry, Give ear unto my prayer, on lips that would not deceive:
