诗篇 第 16 篇

¹（大卫的金诗。）神啊，求你保佑我，因为我投靠你。Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.

²我的心哪，你曾对耶和华说：你是我的主；我的好处不在你以外。O my soul, thou hast said unto the LORD, Thou art my Lord: my goodness extendeth not to thee;

³论到世上的圣民，他们又美又善，是我最喜悦的。But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.

⁴以别神代替耶和华的（或译：送礼物给别神的），他们的愁苦必加增；他们所浇奠的血我不献上；我嘴唇也不提别神的名号。Their 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.

⁵耶和华是我的产业，是我杯中的分；我所得的，你为我持守。The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.

⁶用绳量给我的地界，坐落在佳美之处；我的产业实在美好。The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.

⁷我必称颂那指教我的耶和华；我的心肠在夜间也警戒我。I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons.

⁸我将耶和华常摆在我面前，因他在我右边，我便不致摇动。I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.

⁹因此，我的心欢喜，我的灵（原文是荣耀）快乐；我的肉身也要安然居住。Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope.

¹⁰因为你必不将我的灵魂撇在阴间，也不叫你的圣者见朽坏。For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

¹¹你必将生命的道路指示我。在你面前有满足的喜乐；在你右手中有永远的福乐。Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
