Psalms 16:5 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

The Lord — I rejoice in God as my portion, and desire no better, no other felicity. Cup — The portion which is put into my cup, as the ancient manner was in feasts, where each had his portion of meat, and of wine allotted to him. Lot — My inheritance divided to me by lot, as the custom then was.

Psalms 16:5

5 The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup: thou maintainest my lot.
