The LORD assigned my portion and my cup.

Selected verse

I have set the LORD always before me.

Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.

Therefore my heart is glad, and my tongue rejoices.

My body shall also dwell in safety.

For you will not leave my soul in Sheol,

neither will you allow your holy one to see corruption.

You will show me the path of life.

In your presence is fullness of joy.

In your right hand there are pleasures forever more.
