Jehovah

thee

the
LORD
, “You

are
in the earth

take
their names upon
my lips.

my cup :
Thou
maintainest
my lot.

I
have
a
goodly
heritage
.

my
boundary

me counsel
; Yea,
my heart
instructeth
me in
the
night
seasons
.

always before me :

safety

Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue
rejoices
; my body
also will
dwell securely

thy
holy one to
see corruption

will
not abandon
my soul to Sheol ,
nor

You

are
pleasures
for
evermore

have
made
known
to
me the path of life; You
will
fill
me
with
joy
in Your
presence,
with
eternal
pleasures
at
Your
right hand.
