Psalms 16:3-8

3But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.

4Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips.1

5Yhwh is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.2

6The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.

7I will bless Yhwh, who hath given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons.

8I have set Yhwh always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
