Biblical Reflections

Psalm 16 is a hymn praise where those who sing entrust themselves to the Lord in confidence and contentment in his care.
1-2 – The Lord is my refuse, the only one on whom I can rely on for my well-being.
3-4 – My delight is being with the godly, those who also rely on the Lord for their well-being. The saints are the godly, in contrast to the ungodly who run after idols and false gods.
5-6 – The Psalmist expresses contentment with God by referencing his allotment of the land of Israel which provides for his sustenance. This is the family inheritance.
7-8 – The Psalmist expresses further contentment in God’s presence and moral instruction. I have set the Lord always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken. Compare this to Psalm 15, where the one who walks blameless and does what is right shall never be moved or shaken.
9-11 – The Psalmist expresses his final contentment thinking about the everlasting joy that he will have after death in heaven with God, At your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
