Psalm 16:5 Douay-Rheims

The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup: it is thou that wilt restore my inheritance to me.

Jamieson, Fausset & Brown

1871 Reformed

God is the chief good, and supplies all need (Deu 10:9). portion of mine inheritance and of my cup--may contain an allusion to the daily supply of food, and also to the inheritance of Levi (Deu 18:1-2). maintainest--or, drawest out my lot--enlargest it. Psa 16:7 carries out this idea more fully.
