Psalm 16
HCSB Parallel NIV [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
Holman Christian Standard BibleNew International Version
1A Davidic Miktam. Protect me, God, for I take refuge in You. 1A miktam of David. Keep me safe, my God, for in you I take refuge.
2I said to Yahweh, "You are my Lord; I have nothing good besides You." 2I say to the LORD, "You are my Lord; apart from you I have no good thing."
3As for the holy people who are in the land, they are the noble ones. All my delight is in them. 3I say of the holy people who are in the land, "They are the noble ones 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. 4Those who run after other gods will suffer more and more. I will not pour out libations of blood to such gods or take up their names on my lips.
5 LORD, You are my portion and my cup of blessing; You hold my future. 5LORD, you alone are my portion and my cup; you make my lot secure.
6The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance. 6The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance.
7I will praise the LORD who counsels me-- even at night my conscience instructs me. 7I will praise the LORD, who counsels me; even at night my heart instructs me.
8I keep the LORD in mind always. Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. 8I keep my eyes always on the LORD. With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
9Therefore my heart is glad and my spirit rejoices; my body also rests securely. 9Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure,
10For You will not abandon me to Sheol; You will not allow Your Faithful One to see decay. 10because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead, nor will you let your faithful one see decay.
11You reveal the path of life to me; in Your presence is abundant joy; in Your right hand are eternal pleasures. 11You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.
