AB - Psalms - 16

16:1  Keep me, O Lord; for I have hoped in You.

16:2  I said to the Lord, You are my Lord; my goodness is nothing apart from You.

16:3  On behalf of the saints that are in His land, He has magnified all His pleasure in them.

16:4  Their weaknesses have been multiplied; afterward they hastened. I will by no means assemble their bloody meetings, neither will I make mention of their names with my lips.

16:5  The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup: You are He that restores my inheritance to me.

16:6  The lines have fallen to me in the best places; yea, I have a most excellent heritage.

16:7  I will bless the Lord who has instructed me; my reins too have chastened me even till night.

16:8  I foresaw the Lord always before my face; for He is on my right hand, that I should not be moved.

16:9  Therefore my heart rejoiced and my tongue exalted; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:

16:10  because You will not leave my soul in Hades, neither will You allow Your Holy One to see corruption.

16:11  You have made known to me the ways of life; You will fill me with joy with Your countenance: at Your right hand there are delights forever.
