Psalms 16
1(A mikhtam of Dovid) 1 for in Thee do I hide myself. 1
2I said unto Hashem, Thou art Adonoi of me; 1 besides Thee I have no good. 1
3But to the Kedoshim that are in ha'aretz, 1 they are the glorious ones, in whom is all my delight. 1
4Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after other g-ds; 1 their nesakhim (drink offerings) of dahm will I not offer, 1 nor take up their shmot (names) + 16:4 of idols on my lips. 1
5Hashem is the chelek (allotted share) of mine inheritance and of my kos (cup); + 16:5 of blessing 1 Thou maintainest my goral (lot, allotment by the divine will). 1
6The boundary lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; 1 yea, I have a goodly nachalah (inheritance). 1
7I will bless Hashem, Who hath given me counsel; 1 my mind also instructs me in the night seasons. 1
8I have set Hashem always before me; 1 because He is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken. 1
9Therefore my lev is glad, and my kavod rejoiceth; 1 my basar also shall dwell securely. + 16:9 See 1Th 5:23 1
10For Thou wilt not abandon my nefesh in Sheol; 1 neither wilt Thou allow Thine Chasid to see shachat 1 (corruption, the pit, the grave, the abyss of corruption). + 16:10 See Ac 2:24 1
11Thou wilt show me the Orach Chayyim (the path of life); 1 in Thy presence is fulness of joy, 1 at Thy right hand there are pleasures netzach (for evermore).
