4 let their suffering increase becausethey hurried after a different god.I won’t participate in their blood offerings;I won’t let their names cross my lips.
5 You, Lord, are my portion, my cup;you control my destiny.
6 The property lines have fallen beautifully for me;yes, I have a lovely home.
7 I will bless the Lord who advises me;even at night I am instructedin the depths of my mind.
8 I always put the Lord in front of me;I will not stumble because he is on my right side.
9 That’s why my heart celebrates and my mood is joyous;yes, my whole body will rest in safety
10 because you won’t abandon my life to the grave;you won’t let your faithful follower see the pit.
