Holman Christian Standard BibleKing James Bible
1A Davidic Miktam. Protect me, God, for I take refuge in You. 1Michtam of David. Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.
2I said to Yahweh, "You are my Lord; I have nothing good besides You." 2O my soul, thou hast said unto the LORD, Thou art my Lord: my goodness extendeth not to thee;
3As for the holy people who are in the land, they are the noble ones. All my delight is in them. 3But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.
4The sorrows of those who take another god for themselves will multiply; I will not pour out their drink offerings of blood, and I will not speak their names with my lips. 4Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips.
5 LORD, You are my portion and my cup of blessing; You hold my future. 5The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.
6The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance. 6The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.
7I will praise the LORD who counsels me-- even at night my conscience instructs me. 7I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons.
8I keep the LORD in mind always. Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. 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 spirit rejoices; my body also rests securely. 9Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope.
10For You will not abandon me to Sheol; You will not allow Your Faithful One to see decay. 10For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
11You reveal the path of life to me; in Your presence is abundant joy; in Your right hand are eternal pleasures. 11Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
