1. Protect me, God, because I take refuge in you.
2. I say to the Lord, "You are my Lord.Apart from you, I have nothing good."
3. Now as for the "holy ones" in the land,the "magnificent ones" that I was so happy about;
4. let their suffering increase becausethey hurried after a different god.I won’t participate in their blood offerings;I won’t let their names cross my lips.
5. You, Lord, are my portion, my cup;you control my destiny.
6. The property lines have fallen beautifully for me;yes, I have a lovely home.
