1<\/strong> [Michtam of David]. Preserve me, O God; For in thee do I take refuge.<\/p>\n

2<\/strong> [ O my soul], thou hast said unto Jehovah, Thou art my Lord: I have no good beyond thee.<\/p>\n

3<\/strong> As for the saints that are in the earth, They are the excellent in whom is all my delight.<\/p>\n

4<\/strong> Their sorrows shall be multiplied that give gifts for another [god] : Their drink-offerings of blood will I not offer, Nor take their names upon my lips.<\/p>\n

5<\/strong> Jehovah is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: Thou maintainest my lot.<\/p>\n

6<\/strong> The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; Yea, I have a goodly heritage.<\/p>\n

7<\/strong> I will bless Jehovah, who hath given me counsel; Yea, my heart instructeth me in the night seasons.<\/p>\n

8<\/strong> I have set Jehovah always before me: Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.<\/p>\n

9<\/strong> Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth; My flesh also shall dwell in safety.<\/p>\n

10<\/strong> For thou wilt not leave my soul to Sheol; Neither wilt thou suffer thy holy one to see corruption.<\/p>\n

11<\/strong> Thou wilt show me the path of life: In thy presence is fulness of joy; In thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"give_campaign_id":0,"iawp_total_views":0},"tags":[171,170,173,196],"class_list":["post-22538","bible_chapter","type-bible_chapter","status-publish","hentry","tag-asv","tag-bible","tag-old-testament","tag-psalms"],"yoast_head":"\nPsalms Chapter 16 - Easy To Understand<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Read Psalms Chapter 16 and share your prayer request.
