Psalms 16:1-7

16:1

<
<Michtam <04387>

of David
<01732>.>>

Preserve
<08104> (8798)

me, O God
<0410>_:

for in thee do I put my trust
<02620> (8804)_.

{Michtam: or, A golden Psalm}

16:2

[O my soul], thou hast said
<0559> (8804)

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

Thou [art] my Lord
<0136>_:

my goodness
<02896>

[extendeth] not to thee;

16:3

[But] to the saints
<06918>

that
<01992>

[are] in the earth
<0776>_,

and [to] the excellent
<0117>_,

in whom [is] all my delight
<02656>_.

16:4

Their sorrows
<06094>

shall be multiplied
<07235> (8799)

[that] hasten
<04116> (8804)

[after] another
<0312>

[god]: their drink offerings
<05262>

of blood
<01818>

will I not offer
<05258> (8686)_,

nor
<01077>

take up
<05375> (8799)

their names
<08034>

into my lips
<08193>_.

{hasten...: or, give gifts to another}

16:5

The LORD
<03068>

[is] the portion
<04490>

of mine inheritance
<02506>

and of my cup
<03563>_:

thou maintainest
<08551> (8802)

my lot
<01486>_.

{of mine...: Heb. of my part}

16:6

The lines
<02256>

are fallen
<05307> (8804)

unto me in pleasant
<05273>

[places]; yea, I have a goodly
<08231> (8804)

heritage
<05159>_.

16:7

I will bless
<01288> (8762)

the LORD
<03068>_,

who hath given me counsel
<03289> (8804)_:

my reins
<03629>

also instruct
<03256> (8765)

me in the night seasons
<03915>_.
