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

3 As for the saints who are in the earth, They are the majestic ones in whom is all my delight.

I say of the holy people who are in the land, “They are the noble ones in whom is all my delight.”
4 The sorrows of those who have bartered for another god will be multiplied; I shall not pour out their drink offerings of blood, Nor will I take their names upon my lips.
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 The LORD is the portion of my inheritance and my cup; You support my lot.
5
LORD, you alone are my portion and my cup; you make my lot secure.

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

Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure,
10 For You will not abandon my soul to Sheol; Nor will You allow Your Holy One to undergo decay.
10
because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead, nor will you let your faithful one see decay.
11 You will make known to me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; In Your right hand there are pleasures forever.
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.
