The presence of God

(Acts 2:14-36)
1
A michtam of David. Protect me, God, for I take refuge in you.
2
I say to Yahweh, “You are my Lord; my goodness is nothing apart from you.
3
As for the holy people who are on the earth, they are noble people; all my delight is in them.
4
Their troubles will be increased, those who seek out other gods. I will not pour out drink offerings of blood to their gods or lift up their names with my lips.
5
Yahweh, you are my chosen portion and my cup. You hold onto my destiny.
6
Measuring lines have been laid for me in pleasant places; surely a pleasing inheritance is mine.
7
I will bless Yahweh, who counsels me; even at night my mind instructs me.
8
I set Yahweh before me at all times, so I will not be shaken from his right hand!
9
Therefore, my heart is glad; my glory is rejoicing. Surely I will live in security.
10
For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol. You will not let your faithful one see the pit.
11
You teach me the path of life; abundant joy resides in your presence; delights abide in your right hand forever!”

The presence of God

(Acts 2:14-36)
1
Preserve me, God, for I take refuge in you.
2
My soul, you have said to the LORD, “You are my Lord. Apart from you I have no good thing.”
3
As for the saints who are in the earth, they are the excellent ones in whom is all my delight.
4
Their sorrows shall be multiplied who give gifts to another god. Their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, nor take their names on my lips.
5
The LORD assigned my portion and my cup. You made my lot secure.
6
The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places. Yes, I have a good inheritance.
7
I will bless the LORD, who has given me counsel. Yes, my heart instructs me in the night seasons.
8
I have set the LORD always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
9
Therefore my heart is glad, and my tongue rejoices. My body shall also dwell in safety.
10
For you will not leave my soul in Sheol,(a) neither will you allow your holy one to see corruption.
11
You will show me the path of life. In your presence is fullness of joy. In your right hand there are pleasures forever more.
