You are my inheritance O Lord!
Preserve (Protect) me, O God, for in You I take refuge.
I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord,
I have no good apart from You!
As the Holy ones in the land, they are the noble,
in whom is all my delight!
Those who choose another god multiply their sorrows,
their drink offerings of blood I will not pour out
or take their names upon my lips.
You are my inheritance O Lord!
The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup,
You hold my lot.
The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
I have a goodly heritage!
You are my inheritance O Lord!
I bless the Lord who gives me counsel;
in the night also my heart instructs me.
I keep the Lord always before me
because He is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
You are my inheritance O Lord!
Therefore my heart is glad and my soul rejoices,
my body also rests secure.
For You do not give me up to Hell
or let Your faithful one see corruption. (-Psalm 16:10)
You are my inheritance O Lord!
You show me the path of life.
in Your presence there is fullness of joy;
in Your right hand are pleasures forevermore!
You are my inheritance O Lord! –Psalm 16:1-11
