# Chapter 34
|
|
1. I will bless the LORD at all times;
|
|
his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
|
|
|
|
2. My soul makes its boast in the LORD;
|
|
let the humble hear and be glad.
|
|
|
|
3. Oh, magnify the LORD with me,
|
|
and let us exalt his name together!
|
|
|
|
4. I sought the LORD, and he answered me
|
|
and delivered me from all my fears.
|
|
|
|
5. Those who look to him are radiant,
|
|
and their faces shall never be ashamed.
|
|
|
|
6. This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him
|
|
and saved him out of all his troubles.
|
|
|
|
7. The angel of the LORD encamps
|
|
around those who fear him, and delivers them.
|
|
|
|
8. Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good!
|
|
Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him!
|
|
|
|
9. Oh, fear the LORD, you his saints,
|
|
for those who fear him have no lack!
|
|
|
|
10. The young lions suffer want and hunger;
|
|
but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing.
|
|
|
|
11. Come, O children, listen to me;
|
|
I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
|
|
|
|
12. What man is there who desires life
|
|
and loves many days, that he may see good?
|
|
|
|
13. Keep your tongue from evil
|
|
and your lips from speaking deceit.
|
|
|
|
14. Turn away from evil and do good;
|
|
seek peace and pursue it.
|
|
|
|
15. The eyes of the LORD are toward the righteous
|
|
and his ears toward their cry.
|
|
|
|
16. The face of the LORD is against those who do evil,
|
|
to cut off the memory of them from the earth.
|
|
|
|
17. When the righteous cry for help, the LORD hears
|
|
and delivers them out of all their troubles.
|
|
|
|
18. The LORD is near to the brokenhearted
|
|
and saves the crushed in spirit.
|
|
|
|
19. Many are the afflictions of the righteous,
|
|
but the LORD delivers him out of them all.
|
|
|
|
20. He keeps all his bones;
|
|
not one of them is broken.
|
|
|
|
21. Affliction will slay the wicked,
|
|
and those who hate the righteous will be condemned.
|
|
|
|
22. The LORD redeems the life of his servants;
|
|
none of those who take refuge in him will be condemned.
