A Precious Psalm of David. Preserve me, O GOD, for I have sought refuge in thee.
2 You [fem] said to Yahweh [are the] Lord you good my not [is] on you.
Thou hast said unto Yahweh, My Lord, art thou! My goodness, mounteth not unto thee.
3 To [the] holy [ones] who [are] in the land they and [the] majestic [ones] [whom] all delight my [is] in them.
It belongeth unto the holy ones, whom, in his own land, Yahweh, ennobleth, In whom is all his delight
4 They will increase sorrows their [those who] another [god] they hurried after not I will pour out drink offerings their from blood and not I will take names their on lips my.
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] [the] portion of possession my and cup my you [are] holding lot my.
Yahweh, is mine allotted portion and my cup, Thou, art maintaining my lot.
6 Boundary lines they have fallen to me in pleasant [places] also an inheritance it is beautiful on me.
The lines, have fallen unto me, in pleasant places, Verily an inheritance that delighteth me.
7 I will bless Yahweh who he has counseled me also nights they have instructed me kidneys my.
I will bless Yahweh, who hath counselled me, —Surely, by night, shall mine impulses admonish me.
8 I have placed Yahweh to before me continually for [he is] from right [hand] my not I will be shaken.
I have set Yahweh before me continually, because he is on my right hand, I shall not be shaken!
9 Therefore - it is glad heart my and it rejoiced honor my also body my it will dwell to security.
Therefore, hath my heart rejoiced, and mine honour exulted, Yea, my flesh, shall settle down securely;
10 For - not you will abandon life my to Sheol not you will permit faithful [one] your to see [the] pit. (Sheol h7585)
For thou wilt not abandon my soul to hades, neither wilt thou suffer thy man of lovingkindness, to see corruption: (Sheol h7585)
11 You will make known to me [the] path of life abundance of gladness [are] with presence your pleasant [things] [are] at right [hand] your perpetuity.
Thou wilt cause me to know, the path of life, —Fulness of joys before thee, Pleasures at thy right hand evermore.
