Songs 16/Yahweh is my security

Psa 16:1–11

16 A song by David.

16Protect me, God,

because you are the one I trust for my safety.

2I tell Yahweh, “You are my master. Anything good I do means nothing without you.

3As for the godly people who live here, they are noble people.

I really enjoy being with them.

4Their troubles will increase—

those who choose to worship other gods.

I won’t pour out their drink offerings of blood

or even use my lips to name their gods.

5Yahweh is all I want to as my inheritance and my cup.

You ensure my future security.

6I’ve had a nice piece of land measured out for me

it’s definitely a good inheritance that I received.

7I will praise Yahweh who gives me good advice.

Even at night, my conscience teaches me what’s right.

8I made a decision to always keep Yahweh on my mind.

Nothing will worry me, because he’s right here beside me

9so I can relax and be happy,

Also I can live in safety

10because you won’t abandon my soul to Sheol.[ref]

You wouldn’t permit your faithful follower to see the pit.

11You show me the path that leads to life.

I’m always happy in your presence.

I’ll have pleasure forever when I’m with you.”[ref]

Acts 13:35:

35So in another psalm God said,

‘You won’t allow your devout one to experience decay.’

Acts 2:25-28:

25[ref]As David wrote,

‘I foresaw the master always being in front of me. I refuse to be afraid because he’s there on my right.

26Because of that, I was happy and spoke out my praises. My whole body lives in anticipation 27because you will never abandon my soul in Hades, nor will you allow the godly one to decay. 28You showed me the roads to life. You fill me with gladness because of your presence.’
