I have set the Lord always before me;

because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.

Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being rejoices;

my flesh also dwells secure.

For you will not abandon my soul to Sheol,

or let your holy one see corruption.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

I keep my eyes always on the Lord.

With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken.

Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices;

my body also will rest secure,

because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead,

nor will you let your faithful one see decay.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

I always let the Lord guide me.

Because he is at my right hand,

I will not be shaken.

Therefore my heart is glad

my body also rests securely.

For you will not abandon me to Sheol;

you will not allow your faithful one to see decay.

NLTNew Living Translation

I know the Lord is always with me.

I will not be shaken, for he is right beside me.

No wonder my heart is glad, and I rejoice.

My body rests in safety.

For you will not leave my soul among the dead

or allow your holy one to rot in the grave.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

I have set Yahweh before me always.

Because he is at my right hand I will not be shaken.

Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices.

Yes, my body will dwell in safety,

for you will not abandon my soul to Sheol;

you will not give your faithful one to see the grave.

KJV 1900King James Version

I have set the Lord always before me:

Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.

Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth:

My flesh also shall rest in hope.

For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell;

Neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
