A Goodly Heritage |
|
| 1 |
Preserve me, O God:
| | |
for in thee do I put my trust. |
|
|
| 2 |
O my soul, thou hast said unto the LORD, Thou art my Lord:
| | |
my goodness extendeth not to thee; |
|
|
| 3 |
but to the saints that are in the earth,
| | |
and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight. |
|
|
| 4 |
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 |
The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup:
|
| 6 |
The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places;
| | |
yea, I have a goodly heritage. |
|
|
| 7 |
I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel:
| | |
my reins also instruct me in the night seasons. |
|
|
| 8 |
I have set the LORD always before me:
| | |
because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. |
|
|
| 9 |
Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth:
| | |
my flesh also shall rest in hope. |
|
|
| 10 |
For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; 1 Cor. 15.4
| | |
neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. Acts 13.35 |
|
|
| 11 |
Thou wilt show me the path of life:
| | |
in thy presence is fulness of joy; Acts 2.25-28 |
|
at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. |
