Jehovah the psalmist’s portion in life and deliverer in death.
Michtam of David.
8I bless the LORD who gives me counsel; in the night also my heart instructs me.
9I keep the LORD always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
10Therefore my heart is glad, and my soul rejoices; my body also dwells secure.
11For thou dost not give me up to Sheol, or let thy godly one see the Pit. [ (Psalms 16:12) Thou dost show me the path of life; in thy presence there is fulness of joy, in thy right hand are pleasures for evermore. ]
Psalms 16:8-11 (RSV)
