Psalms 16:6 in Context — Psalms 16

4 On multiplie les idoles, on court après les dieux étrangers: Je ne répands pas leurs libations de sang, Je ne mets pas leurs noms sur mes lèvres.

5 L’Éternel est mon partage et mon calice; C’est toi qui m’assures mon lot;

6 Un héritage délicieux m’est échu, Une belle possession m’est accordée.

7 Je bénis l’Éternel, mon conseiller; La nuit même mon cœur m’exhorte.

8 J’ai constamment l’Éternel sous mes yeux; Quand il est à ma droite, je ne chancelle pas.
