¹ <> I will bless the LORD at all times. His praise will always be in my mouth. ² My soul shall boast in the LORD. The humble shall hear of it, and be glad. ³ Oh magnify the LORD with me. Let us exalt his name together. ⁴ I sought the LORD, and he answered me, And delivered me from all my fears. ⁵ They looked to him, and were radiant. Their faces shall never be covered with shame. 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 round about 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 holy ones, For there is no lack with those who fear him. ¹⁰ The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger, But those who seek the LORD shall not lack any good thing.

¹¹ Come, you children, listen to me. I will teach you the fear of the LORD. ¹² Who is someone who desires life, And loves many days, that he may see good? ¹³ Keep your tongue from evil, And your lips from speaking lies. ¹⁴ Depart from evil, and do good. Seek shalom, and pursue it. ¹⁵ The eyes of the LORD are toward the righteous. His ears listen to their cry. ¹⁶ The face of the LORD is against those who do evil, To cut off the memory of them from the eretz. ¹⁷ The righteous cry, and the LORD hears, And delivers them out of all their troubles. ¹⁸ The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart, And saves those who have a crushed spirit. ¹⁹ Many are the afflictions of the righteous, But the LORD delivers him out of them all. ²⁰ He protects all of his bones. Not one of them is broken. ²¹ Evil shall kill the wicked. Those who hate the righteous shall be condemned. ²² The LORD redeems the soul of his servants. None of those who take refuge in him shall be condemned.
