Biblical Text: Psalm 16:5-11 (NKJV)
5 O Lord, You are the portion of my inheritance and my cup;
You [a]maintain my lot.
6 The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places;
Yes, I have a good inheritance.
7 I will bless the Lord who has given me counsel;
My [b]heart also instructs me in the night seasons.
8 (A)I have set the Lord always before me;
Because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved.
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices;
My flesh also will [c]rest in hope.
10 (B)For You will not leave my soul in [d]Sheol,
Nor will You allow Your Holy One to [e]see corruption.
11 You will show me the (C)path of life;
In Your presence is fullness of joy;
At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
