Salmos 16

1God, protect me because I go to you to keep me safe! 2I said to Yahweh, “You are my Lord; all the good things that I have come from you.” 3Your people who live in this land are wonderful; I delight to be with them. 4Those who choose to worship other gods will have many things that cause them to be sad. I will not join them when they make sacrifices to their gods; I will not even join them when they speak [MTY] the names of their gods. 5Yahweh, you are the one whom I have chosen, and you give me great blessings. and control what happens to me. 6Yahweh has given me a wonderful place in which to live; I am delighted with all the things that he has given me [MET]. 7I will praise Yahweh, the one who teaches/disciplines me; even at night he you put in my mind what is right for me to do. 8I know that Yahweh is always with me. He is beside me; so nothing will ◄perturb me/cause me to be worried►. 9Therefore I am glad and I [MTY, DOU] rejoice; I can rest securely 10because you, Yahweh, will not allow my soul/spirit to remain in the place where the dead people are; you will not allow me, your godly one, to stay there.
