1 Guard me, O God, for I have taken refuge in you.
2 You have said to the LORD, O my soul, "You are my Lord; I have no good except in you."
3 As for the holy ones who are in the land, they are the majestic ones; all my delight is in them.
4 Many will be the sorrows of those who hurry after another god; I will not pour out their libations of blood, nor lift their names to my lips.
5 The LORD is the portion of my share and my cup; you uphold my lot.
6 Measuring lines have fallen for me in delightful places; yes, a lovely inheritance is mine.
7 I will bless the LORD, who has counseled me; even at night my inmost being admonishes me.
8 I have placed the LORD before me continually; since he is at my right hand, I will not be moved.
9 So my heart rejoices and my glory is glad; my flesh as well will rest secure.
10 For you will not leave my soul to Sheol, nor will you give up your Holy One to see corruption.
11 You will make me know the way of life; abundance of joys is in your presence, delights at your right hand forever.
