Psalms 16:2-8

²I said to the Lord, “You are my Lord, my happiness rests in you alone.

³Those who are holy in the land, they, they alone, are the noble ones; all my delight is in them.”

⁴Those who choose other gods find endless sorrow. In their offerings of blood I will have no part nor take their name on my lips.

⁵The Lord is my share and my portion, my fate is in your strong hands.

⁶The boundary lines of my life mark out delightful country, my heritage pleases me well.

⁷I praise the Lord for his counsel, which so stirs my heart in the night.

⁸I keep the Lord always in mind: with him at my hand, I can never be moved.
