| 1 | of David.> Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust. |
| 2 | [O my soul], thou hast said unto the LORD, Thou [art] my Lord: my goodness [extendeth] not to thee; |
| 3 | [But] to the saints that [are] in the earth, and [to] the excellent, in whom [is] all my delight. |
| 4 | Their 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 | The LORD [is] the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot. |
| 6 | The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant [places]; yea, I have a goodly heritage. |
| 7 | I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons. |
| 8 | I have set the LORD always before me: because [he is] at my right hand, I shall not be moved. |
| 9 | Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope. |
| 10 | For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. |
| 11 | Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence [is] fulness of joy; at thy right hand [there are] pleasures for evermore. |
