1Ein Miktam[1]. Von David. Bewahre mich, Gott, denn ich berge mich bei dir! (Ps 7,2; Ps 17,8)2Ich habe zum HERRN gesagt[2]: »Du bist mein Herr; es gibt kein Glück für mich außer dir.«3An den Heiligen, die auf Erden sind, ⟨an⟩ ihnen und an den Herrlichen ⟨habe ich⟩ meine ganze Lust.4Zahlreich sind die Schmerzen derer, die einem anderen ⟨Gott⟩ nachlaufen; ich werde ihre Trankopfer von Blut nicht spenden und ihre Namen nicht auf meine Lippen nehmen.5Der HERR ist der Anteil meines Erbes und mein Becher; du bist es, der mein Los festlegt. (Kla 3,24)6Die Messschnüre sind mir gefallen auf fruchtbares ⟨Land⟩[3]; ja, mein Erbteil gefällt mir. (Ps 61,6; 1Petr 1,4)7Ich preise den HERRN, der mich beraten hat, selbst des Nachts unterweisen mich meine Nieren[4].8Ich habe den HERRN stets vor Augen[5]; weil er zu meiner Rechten ist, werde ich nicht wanken. (Ps 21,8; Ps 62,3)9Darum freut sich mein Herz und jauchzt meine Seele[6]. Auch mein Fleisch wird in Sicherheit ruhen. (Lk 1,47)10Denn mein Leben wirst du dem Scheol nicht lassen, wirst nicht zugeben, dass dein Frommer die Grube sieht. (Apg 2,31)11Du wirst mir kundtun den Weg des Lebens; Fülle von Freuden ist vor deinem Angesicht, Lieblichkeiten in deiner Rechten immerdar. (Ps 68,4; Mt 7,14; Apg 2,25)
1A Miktam[1] of David. Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge. (Ps 11,1; Ps 56,1; Ps 57,1; Ps 60,1)2I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord; I have no good apart from you.” (Ps 73,25)3As for the saints in the land, they are the excellent ones, in whom is all my delight.[2] (2Mo 19,6; 5Mo 7,6; 1Petr 2,9)4The sorrows of those who run after[3] another god shall multiply; their drink offerings of blood I will not pour out or take their names on my lips. (2Mo 23,13; Jos 23,7)5The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup; you hold my lot. (4Mo 18,20; 5Mo 32,9; Ps 23,5; Ps 73,26; Ps 116,13; Ps 119,57; Ps 125,3; Ps 142,5; Jer 10,16; Jer 51,19; Kla 3,24)6The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance. (Mi 2,5)7I bless the Lord who gives me counsel; in the night also my heart instructs me.[4] (1Sam 23,9; 2Sam 5,18; Ps 7,9; Ps 17,3; Ps 42,8)8I have set the Lord always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken. (Ps 10,6; Ps 15,5; Ps 109,31; Ps 110,5; Ps 119,30; Ps 121,5; Apg 2,25)9Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being[5] rejoices; my flesh also dwells secure. (1Mo 49,6; Ps 30,12; Ps 57,8; Ps 108,1)10For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol, or let your holy one see corruption.[6] (Hi 21,13; Ps 49,9; Ps 89,18; Ps 103,4; Mk 1,24; Apg 13,35)11You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore. (Ps 21,6; Ps 36,8; Mt 7,14)
1Keep me safe, my God, for in you I take refuge.[1]2I say to the Lord, ‘You are my Lord; apart from you I have no good thing.’3I say of the holy people who are in the land, ‘They are the noble ones in whom is all my delight.’4Those who run after other gods will suffer more and more. I will not pour out libations of blood to such gods or take up their names on my lips.5Lord, you alone are my portion and my cup; you make my lot secure.6The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance.7I will praise the Lord, who counsels me; even at night my heart instructs me.8I keep my eyes always on the Lord. With him at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.9Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure,10because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead, nor will you let your faithful[2] one see decay.11You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.
1My God, keep me safe. I go to you for safety.2I say to the LORD, ‘You are my Lord. Without you, I don’t have anything that is good.’3I say about God’s people who live in our land, ‘They are the noble ones. I take great delight in them.’4Those who run after other gods will suffer more and more. I will not pour out offerings of blood to those gods. My lips will not speak their names.5LORD, you alone are everything I need. You make my life secure.6I am very pleased with what you have given me. I am very happy with what I’ve received from you.7I will praise the LORD. He gives me good advice. Even at night my heart teaches me.8I keep my eyes always on the LORD. He is at my right hand. So I will always be secure.9So my heart is glad. Joy is on my tongue. My body also will be secure.10You will not leave me in the place of the dead. You will not let your faithful one rot away.11You always show me the path of life. You will fill me with joy when I am with you. You will make me happy for ever at your right hand.
Psalm 16
King James Version
1Michtam of David. Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust.2O my soul , thou hast said unto the LORD, Thou art my Lord: my goodness extendeth not to thee;3But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.4Their 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.5The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.6The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places ; yea, I have a goodly heritage.7I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons.8I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.9Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope.10For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.11Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
