Nomads, Steve McCurry

Psalm 16





A miktam of David.

 

Keep me safe, O God;

in you I take refuge.

 



Nomads,Steve McCurry



I say to the LORD,

you are my Lord,

you are my only good.

 



Nomads, Steve McCurry



As for the holy ones who are in the land,

they are noble,

in whom is all my delight.

 



Nomads, Steve McCurry



They multiply their sorrows

who court other gods.

Blood libations to them I will not pour out,

nor will I take their names upon my lips.

 



Nomads, Steve McCurry



LORD, my allotted portion and my cup,

you have made my destiny secure.

 



Nomads, Steve McCurry



Pleasant places were measured out for me;

fair to me indeed is my inheritance.

 



Nomads, Steve McCurry



I bless the LORD who counsels me;

even at night my heart exhorts me.

 



Nomads, Steve McCurry



I keep the LORD always before me;

with him at my right hand, I shall never be shaken.

 

Nomads, Steve McCurry

Therefore my heart is glad, my soul rejoices;

my body also dwells secure,

 



Nomads, Steve McCurry



For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol,

nor let your devout one see the pit.

 



Nomads, Steve McCurry

You will show me the path to life,

abounding joy in your presence,

the delights at your right hand forever.
