Psalm 16:4-6
Revised Standard Version

4 Those who choose another god multiply their sorrows;[a]
    their libations of blood I will not pour out
    or take their names upon my lips.

5 The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup;
    thou holdest my lot.
6 The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
    yea, I have a goodly heritage.
