1 Samuel

The Introduction

Psalm 16 (CSB) A Miktam of David.

1 Protect me, God, for I take refuge in you.

2 I said to the LORD, “You are my Lord; I have nothing good besides you.”

3 As for the holy people who are in the land, they are the noble ones. All my delight is in them.

4 The sorrows of those who take another god for themselves will multiply; I will not pour out their drink offerings of blood, and I will not speak their names with my lips.

5 LORD, you are my portion and my cup of blessing; you hold my future.

6 The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.

7 I will bless the LORD who counsels me— even at night when my thoughts trouble me.

8 I always let the LORD guide me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.

9 Therefore my heart is glad and my whole being rejoices; my body also rests securely.

10 For you will not abandon me to Sheol; you will not allow your faithful one to see decay.

11 You reveal the path of life to me; in your presence is abundant joy; at your right hand are eternal pleasures.

Finishing our first series, Apostles' Creed, in the Bible Study with my son, Yusef, he asked if we could do a study on the life of David.

The only thing I can say is, "There's nothing to it but to do it."
