1Preserve me, O God; for in thee do I take refuge.
2O my soul, thou hast said unto Jehovah, Thou art my Lord:
3As for the saints that are in the earth,
4Their sorrows shall be multiplied that give gifts for another god:
5Jehovah is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup:
6The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places;
7I will bless Jehovah, who hath given me counsel;
8I have set Jehovah always before me:
9Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth:
10For thou wilt not leave my soul to Sheol;
11Thou wilt show me the path of life:
