Psalm 16
NKJV Parallel HCSB [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
New King James VersionHolman Christian Standard Bible
1A Michtam of David. Preserve me, O God, for in You I put my trust.1A Davidic Miktam. Protect me, God, for I take refuge in You.
2O my soul, you have said to the LORD, “You are my Lord, My goodness is nothing apart from You.”2I said to Yahweh, "You are my Lord; I have nothing good besides You."
3As for the saints who are on the earth, “They are the excellent ones, in whom is all my delight.”3As for the holy people who are in the land, they are the noble ones. All my delight is in them.
4Their sorrows shall be multiplied who hasten after another god; Their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, Nor take up their names on my lips.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.
5O LORD, You are the portion of my inheritance and my cup; You maintain my lot.5 LORD, You are my portion and my cup of blessing; You hold my future.
6The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; Yes, I have a good inheritance.6The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.
7I will bless the LORD who has given me counsel; My heart also instructs me in the night seasons.7I will praise the LORD who counsels me-- even at night my conscience instructs me.
8I have set the LORD always before me; Because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved.8I keep the LORD in mind always. Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
9Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices; My flesh also will rest in hope.9Therefore my heart is glad and my spirit rejoices; my body also rests securely.
10For You will not leave my soul in Sheol, Nor will You allow Your Holy One to see corruption.10For You will not abandon me to Sheol; You will not allow Your Faithful One to see decay.
11You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.11You reveal the path of life to me; in Your presence is abundant joy; in Your right hand are eternal pleasures.
