But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent, in whom is all my delight.

Verse 3 is found in chapter 16 of Psalms. Psalm 16 is a confession of trust in which God appears as supreme good, inheritance, and protection. The rejection of other gods is not merely a doctrinal affirmation, but a declaration of exclusive dependence upon the Lord. The image of portion and inheritance makes communion with God the psalmist’s true possession. The conclusion celebrates the security that God shows the path of life and allows one to experience fullness in his presence.

An den Heiligen, so auf Erden sind, und den Herrlichen, an denen hab ich all mein Gefallen.
Sino a los santos que están en la tierra, Y a los íntegros: toda mi afición en ellos.
En cuanto a los santos que hay en la tierra, ellos son los nobles en quienes tengo todo mi deleite.
Les saints qui sont dans le pays, Les hommes pieux sont l'objet de toute mon affection.
Tutta la mia affezione è inverso i santi che sono in terra, E inverso gli uomini onorati.
Mas aos santos que estão na terra, e aos ilustres em quem está todo o meu prazer.
論到世上的聖民,他們是尊貴的人, 是我最喜悅的。
