1 Protect me, O God, because I take refuge in you.
2 I said to the Lord,
3 Those who lead holy lives on earth
4 Those who quickly chase after other gods multiply their sorrows.
5 The Lord is my inheritance and my cup.
6 Your boundary lines mark out pleasant places for me.
7 I will praise the Lord, who advises me.
8 I always keep the Lord in front of me.
9 That is why my heart is glad and my soul rejoices.
10 because you do not abandon my soul to the grave
11 You make the path of life known to me.
