Psalms 16:1-8

Psalms 16:1-8 AMP

Keep and protect me, O God, for in You I have placed my trust and found refuge. I said to the LORD, “You are my Lord; I have no good besides You.” As for the saints (godly people) who are in the land, They are the majestic and the noble and the excellent ones in whom is all my delight. The sorrows [pain and suffering] of those who have chosen another god will be multiplied [because of their idolatry]; I will not pour out their drink offerings of blood, Nor will I take their names upon my lips. ¶The LORD is the portion of my inheritance, my cup [He is all I need]; You support my lot. The [boundary] lines [of the land] have fallen for me in pleasant places; Indeed, my heritage is beautiful to me. ¶I will bless the LORD who has counseled me; Indeed, my heart (mind) instructs me in the night. I have set the LORD continually before me; Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
