New Living TranslationHolman Christian Standard Bible
1Keep me safe, O God, for I have come to you for refuge.1A Davidic Miktam. Protect me, God, for I take refuge in You.
2I said to the LORD, “You are my Master! Every good thing I have comes from you.”2I said to Yahweh, "You are my Lord; I have nothing good besides You."
3The godly people in the land are my true heroes! I take pleasure in them!3As for the holy people who are in the land, they are the noble ones. All my delight is in them.
4Troubles multiply for those who chase after other gods. I will not take part in their sacrifices of blood or even speak the names of their gods.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.
5LORD, you alone are my inheritance, my cup of blessing. You guard all that is mine.5 LORD, You are my portion and my cup of blessing; You hold my future.
6The land you have given me is a pleasant land. What a wonderful inheritance!6The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.
7I will bless the LORD who guides me; even at night my heart instructs me.7I will praise the LORD who counsels me-- even at night my conscience instructs me.
8I know the LORD is always with me. I will not be shaken, for he is right beside me.8I keep the LORD in mind always. Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
9No wonder my heart is glad, and I rejoice. My body rests in safety.9Therefore my heart is glad and my spirit rejoices; my body also rests securely.
10For you will not leave my soul among the dead or allow your holy one to rot in the grave.10For You will not abandon me to Sheol; You will not allow Your Faithful One to see decay.
11You will show me the way of life, granting me the joy of your presence and the pleasures of living with you forever.11You reveal the path of life to me; in Your presence is abundant joy; in Your right hand are eternal pleasures.
