Psalms 16:3-11

³As for the saints who are in the earth, they are the noble in whom is all my delight.

⁴Their sorrows will be increased who go after another god: I will not take drink offerings from their hands, or take their names on my lips.

⁵The Lord is my heritage and the wine of my cup; you are the supporter of my right.

⁶Fair are the places marked out for me; I have a noble heritage.

⁷I will give praise to the Lord who has been my guide; knowledge comes to me from my thoughts in the night.

⁸I have put the Lord before me at all times; because he is at my right hand, I will not be moved.

⁹Because of this my heart is glad, and my glory is full of joy: while my flesh takes its rest in hope.

¹⁰For you will not let my soul be prisoned in the underworld; you will not let your loved one see the place of death.

¹¹You will make clear to me the way of life; where you are joy is complete; in your right hand there are pleasures for ever and ever.
