16:3 But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight. For the holy ones who `are' in the land, And the honourable, all my delight `is' in them.
16:4 Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips. Multiplied are their griefs, `Who' have hastened backward; I pour not out their libations of blood, Nor do I take up their names on my lips.
16:5 The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot. Jehovah `is' the portion of my share, and of my cup, Thou -- Thou dost uphold my lot.

16:9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope. Therefore hath my heart been glad, And my honour doth rejoice, Also my flesh dwelleth confidently:
16:10 For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. For Thou dost not leave my soul to Sheol, Nor givest thy saintly one to see corruption.
16:11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. Thou causest me to know the path of life; Fulness of joys `is' with Thy presence, Pleasant things by Thy right hand for ever!
