Psalm 16:8-10
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
8 I keep the Lord always before me;
with him at my right hand, I shall never be shaken.(A)
9 Therefore my heart is glad, my soul rejoices;
my body also dwells secure,
10 For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol,
nor let your devout one see the pit.[a](B)
Footnotes
- 16:10 Nor let your devout one see the pit: Hebrew shahath means here the pit, a synonym for Sheol, the underworld. The Greek translation derives the word here and elsewhere from the verb shahath, “to be corrupt.” On the basis of the Greek, Acts 2:25–32; 13:35–37 apply the verse to Christ’s resurrection, “Nor will you suffer your holy one to see corruption.”

Nor will You allow Your Holy One to [c]see corruption.
