Psalms 15

¹ The inscription of a title to David himself. Preserve me, O Lord, for I have put my trust in thee.

² I have said to the Lord, thou art my God, for thou hast no need of my goods.

³ To the saints, who are in his land, he hath made wonderful all my desires in them.

⁴ Their infirmities were multiplied: afterwards they made haste. I will not gather together their meetings for blood offerings: nor will I be mindful of their names by my lips.

⁵ The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup: it is thou that wilt restore my inheritance to me. [1] "The inscription of a title" : That is, of a pillar or monument, staylographia: which is as much as to say, that this psalm is most worthy to be engraved on an everlasting monument.

⁶ The lines are fallen unto me in goodly places: for my inheritance is goodly to me.

⁷ I will bless the Lord, who hath given me understanding: moreover my reins also have corrected me even till night.

⁸ I set the Lord always in my sight: for he is at my right hand, that I be not moved.

⁹ Therefore my heart hath been glad, and my tongue hath rejoiced: moreover my flesh also shall rest in hope.

¹⁰ Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; nor wilt thou give thy holy one to see corruption.

¹¹ Thou hast made known to me the ways of life, thou shalt fill me with joy with thy countenance: at thy right hand are delights even to the end. Book of Psalms next > Psalm 15 next > TOP OF PAGE side_ads("../") var sc_project = 12672635; var sc_invisible = 1; var sc_security = "b8696459";
