LXX2012: Septuagint in American English 2012
Psalm 15
(16) A writing of David.
Keep me, O Lord; for I have hoped in you.
I said to the Lord, You are my Lord; for you have no need of my 1 goodness.
On behalf of the saints that are in his land, he has magnified all his pleasure in them.
Their weaknesses have been multiplied; afterward they hasted. I will by no means assemble their bloody meetings, neither will I make mention of their names with my lips.
The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup: you are he that restores my inheritance to me.
The lines have fallen to me in the best places, yes, I have a most excellent heritage.
I will bless the Lord who has instructed me; my reins too have chastened me even 2 till night.
I foresaw the Lord always before my face; for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved.
Therefore my heart rejoiced and my tongue exulted; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:
because you will not leave my soul in hell, neither 3 will you suffer your Holy One to see corruption.
You have made known to me the ways of life; you will fill me with joy with your countenance: at your right hand there are delights for ever.
