¹大衛的金詩。　神啊！求你保守我，因為我投靠你。（本節在《馬索拉抄本》包括細字標題）

²我（“我”有古抄本作“你”）曾對耶和華說：“你是我的主，我的好處不在你以外。”

²My soul, you have said to Yahweh, “You are my Lord. Apart from you I have no good thing.”

³至於世上的聖民，他們都是尊貴榮美的人，全是我所喜愛的。

³As for the saints who are in the earth, they are the excellent ones in whom is all my delight.

⁴追求別神的，他們的愁苦必定加多。他們所奠的血祭，我不祭奠；我的嘴唇也不提別神的名。

⁴Their sorrows shall be multiplied who give gifts to another god. Their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, nor take their names on my lips.

⁵耶和華是我的產業，是我杯中的分；我所得的業分，你親自為我持守。

⁵Yahweh assigned my portion and my cup. You made my lot secure.

⁶準繩量給我的是佳美之地，我的產業實在令我喜悅。

⁶The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places. Yes, I have a good inheritance.

⁷我要稱頌那指導我的耶和華，我的心在夜間也勸戒我。

⁷I will bless Yahweh, who has given me counsel. Yes, my heart instructs me in the night seasons.

⁸我常常把耶和華擺在我面前，因他在我右邊，我必不會動搖。

⁸I have set Yahweh always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.

⁹為此我的心快樂，我的靈（“靈”或譯：“榮耀”或“肝”；與30:12，57:8，108:1同）歡欣，我的肉身也必安然居住。

⁹Therefore my heart is glad, and my tongue rejoices. My body shall also dwell in safety.

¹⁰因為你必不把我的靈魂撇在陰間，也必不容你的聖者見朽壞。

¹⁰For you will not leave my soul in Sheol Sheol is the place of the dead. , neither will you allow your holy one to see corruption.

¹¹你必把生命的路指示我，在你面前有滿足的喜樂，在你的右手中有永遠的福樂。

¹¹You will show me the path of life. In your presence is fullness of joy. In your right hand there are pleasures forevermore.
