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[b]
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.
