詩篇 第 16 篇

¹（大衛的金詩。）神啊，求你保佑我，因為我投靠你。Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.

²我的心哪，你曾對耶和華說：你是我的主；我的好處不在你以外。O my soul, thou hast said unto the LORD, Thou art my Lord: my goodness extendeth not to thee;

³論到世上的聖民，他們又美又善，是我最喜悅的。But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.

⁴以別神代替耶和華的（或譯：送禮物給別神的），他們的愁苦必加增；他們所澆奠的血我不獻上；我嘴唇也不提別神的名號。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耶和華是我的產業，是我杯中的分；我所得的，你為我持守。The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.

⁶用繩量給我的地界，坐落在佳美之處；我的產業實在美好。The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.

⁷我必稱頌那指教我的耶和華；我的心腸在夜間也警戒我。I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons.

⁸我將耶和華常擺在我面前，因他在我右邊，我便不致搖動。I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.

⁹因此，我的心歡喜，我的靈（原文是榮耀）快樂；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因為你必不將我的靈魂撇在陰間，也不叫你的聖者見朽壞。For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

¹¹你必將生命的道路指示我。在你面前有滿足的喜樂；在你右手中有永遠的福樂。Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
