Lord, you alone are my portion(A) and my cup;(B)
    you make my lot(C) secure.
The boundary lines(D) have fallen for me in pleasant places;
    surely I have a delightful inheritance.(E)
I will praise the Lord, who counsels me;(F)
    even at night(G) my heart instructs me.
I keep my eyes always on the Lord.
    With him at my right hand,(H) I will not be shaken.(I)

Therefore my heart is glad(J) and my tongue rejoices;
    my body also will rest secure,(K)
10 because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead,(L)
    nor will you let your faithful[a] one(M) see decay.(N)
11 You make known to me the path of life;(O)
    you will fill me with joy in your presence,(P)
    with eternal pleasures(Q) at your right hand.(R)
