Tehillim 16

1 Be shomer over me, O El:

for in Thee do I hide myself.

²I said unto Hashem , Thou art Adonoi of me;

besides Thee I have no good.

³But to the Kedoshim that are in ha'aretz,

they are the glorious ones, in whom is all my delight.

⁴Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after other g-ds;

their nesakhim (drink offerings) of dahm will I not offer,

nor take up their shmot (names) on my lips.

⁵Hashem is the chelek (allotted share) of mine inheritance and of my kos (cup) ;[#16:5 of blessing]

Thou maintainest my goral (lot, allotment by the divine will) .

⁶The boundary lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places;

yea, I have a goodly nachalah (inheritance) .

⁷I will bless Hashem , Who hath given me counsel;

my mind also instructs me in the night seasons.

⁸I have set Hashem always before me;

because He is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.

⁹Therefore my lev is glad, and my kavod rejoiceth;

my basar also shall dwell securely.

¹⁰For Thou wilt not abandon my nefesh in Sheol;

neither wilt Thou allow Thine Chasid to see shachat

(corruption, the pit, the grave, the abyss of corruption) .

¹¹Thou wilt show me the Orach Chayyim (the path of life) ;

in Thy presence is fulness of joy,

at Thy right hand there are pleasures netzach (for evermore) .
