1 Preserve me, O God, for in You I put my trust.
2 O my soul, you have said to the Lord,“You are my Lord,My goodness is nothing apart from You.”
3 As for the saints who are on the earth,“They are the excellent ones, in whom is all my delight.”
4 Their sorrows shall be multiplied who hasten after another god;Their drink offerings of blood I will not offer,Nor take up their names on my lips.
5 O Lord, You are the portion of my inheritance and my cup;You maintain my lot.
6 The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places;Yes, I have a good inheritance.
7 I will bless the Lord who has given me counsel;My heart also instructs me in the night seasons.
