¹A Secret Treasure of David. Preserve me, O God, for I did trust in Thee. ²Thou hast said to Jehovah, `My Lord Thou <FI>art<Fi> ;' My good <FI>is<Fi> not for thine own sake; ³For the holy ones who <FI>are<Fi> in the land, And the honourable, all my delight <FI>is<Fi> in them. ⁴Multiplied are their griefs, <FI>Who<Fi> have hastened backward; I pour not out their libations of blood, Nor do I take up their names on my lips. ⁵Jehovah <FI>is<Fi> the portion of my share, and of my cup, Thou--Thou dost uphold my lot. ⁶Lines have fallen to me in pleasant places, Yea, a beauteous inheritance <FI>is<Fi> for me. ⁷I bless Jehovah who hath counselled me; Also <FI>in<Fi> the nights my reins instruct me. ⁸I did place Jehovah before me continually, Because--at my right hand I am not moved. ⁹Therefore hath my heart been glad, And my honour doth rejoice, Also my flesh dwelleth confidently: ¹⁰For Thou dost not leave my soul to Sheol, Nor givest thy saintly one to see corruption. ¹¹Thou causest me to know the path of life; Fulness of joys <FI>is<Fi> with Thy presence, Pleasant things by Thy right hand for ever!
