Psalm 16:5-11

Revised Standard Version

⁵ The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup;
    thou holdest my lot.
⁶ The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
    yea, I have a goodly heritage.

⁷ I bless the Lord who gives me counsel;
    in the night also my heart instructs me.
⁸ I keep 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 soul rejoices;
    my body also dwells secure.
¹⁰ For thou dost not give me up to Sheol,
    or let thy godly one see the Pit.

¹¹ Thou dost show me the path of life;
    in thy presence there is fulness of joy,
    in thy right hand are pleasures for evermore.
