Psalms 15

¹The inscription of a title: of David himself. Preserve me, O Lord, because I have hoped in you

²I have said to the Lord: “You are my God, so you have no need of my goodness.

³As for the saints, who are in his land: he has made all my desires wonderful in them

⁴Their infirmities have been multiplied; after this, they acted more quickly. I will not gather for their convocations of blood, nor will I remember their names with my lips

⁵The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and my cup. It is you who will restore my inheritance to me

⁶The lots have fallen upon me with clarity. And, indeed, my inheritance has been very clear to me

⁷I will bless the Lord, who has bestowed understanding upon me. Moreover, my temperament has also corrected me, even through the night

⁸I have made provision for the Lord always in my sight. For he is at my right hand, so that I may not be disturbed

⁹Because of this, my heart has been joyful, and my tongue has exulted. Moreover, even my body will rest in hope

¹⁰For you will not abandon my soul to Hell, nor will you allow your holy one to see corruption

¹¹You have made known to me the ways of life; you will fill me with joy by your countenance. At your right hand are delights, even to the end
