1 Protect me, O God; I trust in
you for safety.
2 I say to the LORD, "You are my
LORD;
all the good things I have come
from you."
3 How excellent are the LORD'S
faithfull people!
My greatest pleasure is to be
with them.
4 Those who rush to other gods
bring many troubles on
themselves.
I will not take part in their
sacrifices;
I will not worship their gods.
5 You, LORD, are all I have,
and you give me all I need;
my future is in your hands.
6 How wonderful are your gifts
to me;
how good they are!
7 I praise the LORD, because he
guides me,
and in the night my conscience
warns me.
8 I am always aware of the LORD's
presence;
he is near, and nothing can
shake me.
9 And so I am thankful and glad,
and I feel completely secure,
10 because you protect me from the
power of death.
I have served you faithfully,
and ypu will not abandon me to
the world of the dead.
11 You will show me the path that
leads to life;
your presence fills me with joy
and brings me pleasure forever.
