A Michtam¹⁰According to Rashi, a michtam was a very special musical arrangement composed for this psalm. of David. Preserve me, Almighty, for I have taken refuge in You. You said to Adonoy, You are my Master, I have no well-being without You.¹¹You are not obliged to reward me for obeying Your command since You are my Master. And as Your servant, I must heed Your every wish.—Rashi Due to the holy that are in the earth,¹²Any good You do on my behalf is only through the merit of those holy and pious men of the past who are now buried in the earth.—Rashi and the mighty, are all my desires [fulfilled]. Let their sufferings multiply, those who follow another [sovereignty]; I will not pour their libations of blood, nor carry their names upon my lips. Adonoy is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup; You guide my fate. The portions that have fallen to me are in pleasant places; a beautiful inheritance is mine. I will bless Adonoy Who has given me counsel; even for the nights in which my mind admonished me. I have set Adonoy before me always;¹³Rabbi Hana Ben Bizra said in the name of Rabbi Shimon the Pious, “He who prays should regard himself as though the Shechina, the Divine Presence, were before him, as it is written, ‘I have set Adonoy before me always’.”—Maseches Sanhedrin 22a for surely He is at my right hand, I will not be moved. Therefore my heart rejoiced and my soul exulted; also my flesh will dwell in safety. For You will not abandon my soul to the grave, nor will You allow Your devoted one to see the pit. You will make known to me the path of life; fullness of joy is in Your presence; pleasantness is at Your right hand, evermore.
