| 1 | A Miktam of David. Preserve me, O God, for in You I take refuge. | Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge. | Michtam of David. Preserve me, O God: for in thee do I put my trust. | A Mikhtam of David. Protect me, God, for I take refuge in You. | A miktam of David. Keep me safe, my God, for in you I take refuge. |
| 2 | I said to the LORD, “You are my Lord; apart from You I have no good thing.” | I say to the LORD, “You are my Lord; I have no good apart from you.” | <i>O my soul</i>, thou hast said unto the LORD, Thou <i>art</i> my Lord: my goodness <i>extendeth</i> not to thee; | I said to the LORD, “You are my Lord; I have nothing good besides You.” | I say to the LORD, “You are my Lord; apart from you I have no good thing.” |
| 3 | As for the saints in the land, they are the excellence in whom all my delight resides. | As for the saints in the land, they are the excellent ones, in whom is all my delight. | <i>But</i> to the saints that <i>are</i> in the earth, and <i>to</i> the excellent, in whom <i>is</i> all my delight. | As for the saints who are on the earth, They are the majestic ones; all my delight is in them. | I say of the holy people who are in the land, “They are the noble ones in whom is all my delight.” |
| 4 | Sorrows will multiply to those who chase other gods. I will not pour out their libations of blood, or speak their names with my lips. | The sorrows of those who run after another god shall multiply; their drink offerings of blood I will not pour out or take their names on my lips. | Their sorrows shall be multiplied <i>that</i> hasten <i>after</i> another <i>god</i>: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips. | The pains of those who have acquired another <i>god</i> will be multiplied; I will not pour out their drink offerings of blood, Nor will I take their names upon my lips. | Those who run after other gods will suffer more and more. I will not pour out libations of blood to such gods or take up their names on my lips. |
| 5 | The LORD is my chosen portion and my cup; You have made my lot secure. | The LORD is my chosen portion and my cup; you hold my lot. | The LORD <i>is</i> the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot. | The LORD is the portion of my inheritance and my cup; You support my lot. | LORD, you alone are my portion and my cup; you make my lot secure. |
| 6 | The lines of my boundary have fallen in pleasant places; surely my inheritance is delightful. | The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance. | The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant <i>places</i>; yea, I have a goodly heritage. | The measuring lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; Indeed, my inheritance is beautiful to me. | The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance. |
| 7 | I will bless the LORD who counsels me; even at night my conscience instructs me. | I bless the LORD who gives me counsel; in the night also my heart instructs me. | I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons. | I will bless the LORD who has advised me; Indeed, my mind instructs me in the night. | I will praise the LORD, who counsels me; even at night my heart instructs me. |
| 8 | I have set the LORD always before me. Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. | I have set the LORD always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken. | I have set the LORD always before me: because <i>he is</i> at my right hand, I shall not be moved. | I have set the LORD continually before me; Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. | I keep my eyes always on the LORD. With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken. |
| 9 | Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will dwell securely. | Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being rejoices; my flesh also dwells secure. | Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope. | Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices; My flesh also will dwell securely. | Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure, |
| 10 | For You will not abandon my soul to Sheol, nor will You let Your Holy One see decay. | For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol, or let your holy one see corruption. | For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. | For You will not abandon my soul to Sheol; You will not allow Your Holy One to undergo decay. | because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead, nor will you let your faithful one see decay. |
| 11 | You have made known to me the path of life; You will fill me with joy in Your presence, with eternal pleasures at Your right hand. | You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore. | Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence <i>is</i> fulness of joy; at thy right hand <i>there are</i> pleasures for evermore. | You will make known to me the way of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; In Your right hand there are pleasures forever. | You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand. |
