Psalms [Praises] 16:2-6

²My soul, you have said to Adonai , “You are my Lord. Apart from you I have no good thing.”

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

⁴Their sorrows shall be multiplied who give gifts to another deity. Their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, nor take their names on my lips.

⁵Adonai assigned my portion and my cup. You made my lot secure.

⁶The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places. Yes, I have a good inheritance.
