Read in context

Psalms 16:4–8 · Berean Standard Bible

4 Sorrows will multiply to those who chase other gods. I will not pour out their libations of blood, or speak their names with my lips.

5 The LORD is my chosen portion and my cup; You have made my lot secure.

6 The lines of my boundary have fallen in pleasant places; surely my inheritance is delightful.

7 I will bless the LORD who counsels me; even at night my conscience instructs me.

8 I have set the LORD always before me. Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
