Antiphon<\/strong>: My body* shall rest in hope.<\/p>\n

Psalm 16<\/strong>
\n1 Protect me, O God, for I take refuge in you;*
\nI have said to the Lord, ‘You are my Lord,
\nmy good above all other.’
\n2 All my delight is upon the godly that are in the land,*
\nupon those who are noble among the people.
\n3 But those who run after other gods*
\nshall have their troubles multiplied.
\n4 Their libations of blood I will not offer,*
\nnor take the names of their gods upon my lips.
\n5 O Lord, you are my portion and my cup;*
\nit is you who uphold my lot.
\n6 My boundaries enclose a pleasant land;*
\nindeed, I have a goodly heritage.
\n7 I will bless the Lord who gives me counsel;*
\nmy heart teaches me, night after night.
\n8 I have set the Lord always before me;*
\nbecause he is at my right hand I shall not fall.
\n9 My heart, therefore, is glad, and my spirit rejoices;*
\nmy body also shall rest in hope.
\n10 For you will not abandon me to the grave,*
\nnor let your holy one see the Pit.
\n11 You will show me the path of life;*
\nin your presence there is fullness of joy,
\nand in your right hand are pleasures for evermore.<\/p>\n

Glory be to the Father\u2026<\/p>\n

Antiphon<\/strong>: My body* shall rest in hope.<\/p>\n
