You Will Not Forsake My Soul

A [a]Mikhtam of David.

16 (A)Keep me, O God, for (B)I take refuge in You.
O my soul, you have said to Yahweh, “You are [b]my Lord;
I (C)have no good without You.”
As for the [c](D)saints who are in the earth,
They are the majestic ones (E)in whom is all my delight.
The [d](F)pains of those who have [e]bartered for another god will be multiplied;
I shall not pour out their drink offerings of (G)blood,
Nor will I (H)take their names upon my lips.

Yahweh is the (I)portion of my inheritance and my (J)cup;
You support my (K)lot.
The (L)lines have fallen to me in pleasant places;
Indeed, my inheritance is (M)beautiful to me.

I will bless Yahweh who has (N)counseled me;
Indeed, my [f](O)mind instructs me in the night.
(P)I have (Q)set Yahweh continually before me;
Because He is (R)at my right hand, (S)I will not be shaken.
Therefore (T)my heart is glad and (U)my glory rejoices;
My flesh also will (V)dwell securely.
10 For You (W)will not forsake my soul to Sheol;
You will not (X)give Your [g]Holy One over to see [h]corruption.
11 You will make known to me (Y)the path of life;
In (Z)Your presence is fullness of joy;
In Your right hand there are (AA)pleasures forever.

16 Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.

O my soul, thou hast said unto the Lord, Thou art my Lord: my goodness extendeth not to thee;

But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.

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.

The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.

The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.

I will bless the Lord, who hath given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons.

I have set the Lord always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.

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; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

16 Молитва Давида.

Услышь, Господи, мольбу мою о справедливости;
    прислушайся к крику моему!
Внемли молитве из нелживых уст!
    Да придет от Тебя оправдание мне.
Пусть увидят правду глаза Твои.

Ты изучил мое сердце, испытал меня ночью;
    Ты испытал меня, но не нашел вины;
уста мои не грешат.
    Что же до дел других,
то по слову из Твоих уст
    я себя сохранил от путей притеснителя.
Стопы мои шли по Твоим путям,
    мои ноги не оступались.

Я взываю к Тебе, Боже, ведь Ты мне ответишь,
    прислушайся ко мне, молитву мою услышь.
Яви мне чудо милости Твоей,
    Ты, правой рукой Своей спасающий тех,
    кто ищет у Тебя прибежища от врага.
Береги меня, как зеницу ока,
    в тени Своих крыльев сохрани меня
от нечестивых, ополчившихся на меня,
    от смертельных врагов, обступивших меня.

10 Закрыты для жалости их сердца,
    и уста их надменное говорят.
11 Они выслеживали меня, а теперь меня окружают;
    высматривают глаза их удобный миг,
    чтобы на землю меня повергнуть.
12 Они словно голодный лев,
    словно лев, что в засаде ждет.

13 Господи, восстань, предстань пред ними!
    повергни их Своим мечом, избавь меня от нечестивых;
14 Своею рукою, о Господь, спаси от людей –
    людей этого мира, чья доля лишь в этой жизни.
Пусть наполнится чрево их тем, что Ты для них припас,
    пусть у детей их излишек останется,
пусть внукам своим отдадут оставшееся.

15 А я в праведности увижу Твое лицо,
    пробудившись, буду насыщаться образом Твоим.

Psalm 16

A miktam[a] of David.

Keep me safe,(A) my God,
    for in you I take refuge.(B)

I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord;(C)
    apart from you I have no good thing.”(D)
I say of the holy people(E) who are in the land,(F)
    “They are the noble ones in whom is all my delight.”
Those who run after other gods(G) will suffer(H) more and more.
    I will not pour out libations of blood to such gods
    or take up their names(I) on my lips.

Lord, you alone are my portion(J) and my cup;(K)
    you make my lot(L) secure.
The boundary lines(M) have fallen for me in pleasant places;
    surely I have a delightful inheritance.(N)
I will praise the Lord, who counsels me;(O)
    even at night(P) my heart instructs me.
I keep my eyes always on the Lord.
    With him at my right hand,(Q) I will not be shaken.(R)

Therefore my heart is glad(S) and my tongue rejoices;
    my body also will rest secure,(T)
10 because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead,(U)
    nor will you let your faithful[b] one(V) see decay.(W)
11 You make known to me the path of life;(X)
    you will fill me with joy in your presence,(Y)
    with eternal pleasures(Z) at your right hand.(AA)
