Michtam of David.
Preserve
me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.
02 O my soul, thou hast said unto the Lord, Thou
art my Lord: my goodness extendeth not to thee;
03 But to the saints that are in the earth, and
to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.
04 Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten
after another god: their drink offerings of blood
will I not offer, nor take up their names into my
lips.
05 The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance
and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.
06 The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant
places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.

07 I will bless the Lord, who hath given me
counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night
seasons.
08 I have set the Lord always before me: because
he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
09 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory
rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope.
10 For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell;
neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see
corruption.
11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy
presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand
there are pleasures for evermore.
