Psalm 16 Conserva me, Domine
  Protect me, O God, for I take refuge in you; *
I have said to the LORD, "You are my Lord, my good above all other." 
  All my delight is upon the godly that are in the land, *
upon those who are noble among the people. 
  But those who run after other gods *
shall have their troubles multiplied. 
  Their libations of blood I will not offer, *
nor take the names of their gods upon my lips. 
  O LORD, you are my portion and my cup; *
it is you who uphold my lot. 
  My boundaries enclose a pleasant land; *
indeed, I have a goodly heritage. 
  I will bless the LORD who gives me counsel; *
my heart teaches me, night after night. 
  I have set the LORD always before me; *
because he is at my right hand I shall not fall. 
  My heart, therefore, is glad, and my spirit rejoices; *
my body also shall rest in hope. 
10   For you will not abandon me to the grave, *
nor let your holy one see the Pit. 
11   You will show me the path of life; *
in your presence there is fullness of joy, and in your right hand are pleasures for evermore.
