God's Word Translation

Psalms 16:4-9 God's Word Translation (GW)

4. Those who quickly chase after other gods multiply their sorrows.I will not pour out their sacrificial offerings of bloodor use my lips to speak their names.

5. The Lord is my inheritance and my cup.You are the one who determines my destiny.

6. Your boundary lines mark out pleasant places for me.Indeed, my inheritance is something beautiful.

7. I will praise the Lord, who advises me.My conscience warns me at night.

8. I always keep the Lord in front of me.When he is by my side, I cannot be moved.

9. That is why my heart is glad and my soul rejoices.My body rests securely
