Psalms 16

Common English Bible w/ Apocrypha CEBA

1 Protect me, God, because I take refuge in you.

2 I say to the LORD, "You are my Lord. Apart from you, I have nothing good."

3 Now as for the "holy ones" in the land, the "magnificent ones" that I was so happy about;

4 let their suffering increase because they hurried after a different god. I won't participate in their blood offerings; I won't let their names cross my lips.

5 You, LORD, are my portion, my cup; you control my destiny.

6 The property lines have fallen beautifully for me; yes, I have a lovely home.

7 I will bless the LORD who advises me; even at night I am instructed in the depths of my mind.

8 I always put the LORD in front of me; I will not stumble because he is on my right side.

9 That's why my heart celebrates and my mood is joyous; yes, my whole body will rest in safety

10 because you won't abandon my life to the grave; you won't let your faithful follower see the pit.

11 You teach me the way of life. In your presence is total celebration. Beautiful things are always in your right hand.

New International Version NIV

1 Keep me safe, my God, for in you I take refuge.

2 I say to the LORD, “You are my Lord; apart from you I have no good thing.”

3 I say of the holy people who are in the land, “They are the noble ones in whom is all my delight.”

4 Those 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 alone are my portion and my cup; you make my lot secure.

6 The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance.

7 I will praise the LORD, who counsels me; even at night my heart instructs me.

8 I keep my eyes always on the LORD. With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken.

9 Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure,

10 because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead, nor will you let your faithful one see decay.

11 You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.
