3For the holy ones who are in the land, And the honourable, all my delight is in them.
4Multiplied are their griefs, Who have hastened backward; I pour not out their libations of blood, Nor do I take up their names on my lips.
5Jehovah is the portion of my share, and of my cup, Thou — Thou dost uphold my lot.
6Lines have fallen to me in pleasant places, Yea, a beauteous inheritance is for me.
7I bless Jehovah who hath counselled me; Also in the nights my reins instruct me.
