Mga Awit 16
Magandang Balita Biblia (with Deuterocanon)
Panalangin ng Pagtitiwala sa Diyos
Miktam[a] ni David.
16 Ingatan mo sana ako, O Diyos, sa iyo ako nanganganlong at nagtitiwalang lubos.
2 Ang sabi ko kay Yahweh, “Ikaw ang Panginoon ko,
kabutihang tinatamasa ko, lahat ay mula sa iyo.”
3 Mga lingkod ng Panginoon ay dakila't mararangal!
Sila'y nagmumula sa iba't ibang bayan; ligaya ng sarili ang sila'y aking makapisan.
4 Ang mga bumabaling sa ibang diyos, sulirani'y sunud-sunod,
sa mga paghahandog nila'y hindi ako sasama;
at sa kanilang mga diyos, ako'y hindi sasamba,
hindi rin maglilingkod, ni pupuri sa kanila.
5 Ikaw lamang, Yahweh, ang lahat sa aking buhay,
lahat ng kailangan ko'y iyong ibinibigay,
kinabukasan ko'y nasa iyong mga kamay.
6 Mga kaloob mo sa akin ay kahanga-hanga,
napakaganda ng iyong pamana!
7 Pinupuri ko si Yahweh na sa aki'y pumapatnubay,
at sa gabi, sa budhi ko siya ang gumagabay.
8 Alam(A) kong kasama ko siya sa tuwina;
hindi ako matitinag pagkat kapiling siya.
9 Kaya't ako'y nagdiriwang, puso't diwa ko'y nagagalak,
hindi ako matitinag sapagkat ako'y panatag.
10 Pagkat(B) di mo tutulutang ang mahal mo ay masadlak,
sa daigdig ng mga patay at doon ay maagnas.
11 Ituturo mo ang landas na patungo sa buhay,
sa piling mo'y madarama ang lubos na kagalakan;
ang tulong mo'y nagdudulot ng ligayang walang hanggan.

Psalm 16
New King James Version
The Hope of the Faithful, and the Messiah’s Victory
A (A)Michtam of David.
16 Preserve[a] me, O God, for in You I put my trust.
2 O my soul, you have said to the Lord,
“You are my Lord,
(B)My goodness is nothing apart from You.”
3 As for the saints who are on the earth,
“They are the excellent ones, in (C)whom is all my delight.”
4 Their sorrows shall be multiplied who hasten after another god;
Their drink offerings of (D)blood I will not offer,
(E)Nor take up their names on my lips.
5 O Lord, You are the portion of my inheritance and my cup;
You [b]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 [c]heart also instructs me in the night seasons.
8 (F)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 rejoices;
My flesh also will [d]rest in hope.
10 (G)For You will not leave my soul in [e]Sheol,
Nor will You allow Your Holy One to [f]see corruption.
11 You will show me the (H)path of life;
In Your presence is fullness of joy;
At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.

You Will Not Abandon My Soul
A (A)Miktam[a] of David.
16 Preserve me, O God, for in you I (B)take refuge.
2 I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord;
(C)I have no good apart from you.”
4 The sorrows of those who run after[c] another god shall multiply;
their drink offerings of blood I will not pour out
or (E)take their names on my lips.

9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my (Q)whole being[e] rejoices;
my flesh also dwells secure.
10 For you will not abandon my soul to (R)Sheol,
(S)or let your (T)holy one see (U)corruption.[f]
11 You make known to me (V)the path of life;
in your presence there is (W)fullness of joy;
at your right hand are (X)pleasures forevermore.
