¹ A Psalm of David, when he changed his behavior before Abimelech; and he drove him away, and he went. I will bless Jehovah at all times; His praise shall always be in my mouth.² My soul shall make its boast in Jehovah; the humble shall hear and be glad.³ O magnify Jehovah with me; and let us exalt His name together.⁴ I sought Jehovah, and He answered me, and delivered me out of all my fear.⁵ They looked to Him and were filled with light; and their faces were not ashamed.⁶ This poor man cried; and Jehovah heard, and saved him out of all his distress.⁷ The Angel of Jehovah camps around those who fear Him, and He sets them free.⁸ Taste and see that Jehovah is good; blessed is the man seeking refuge in Him.⁹ Fear Jehovah, His saints, for they who fear Him lack nothing.¹⁰ The young lions have lacked and been hungry; but they who seek Jehovah shall not lack any good thing.

¹¹ My sons, come, listen to Me; I will make known to you the fear of Jehovah.¹² Who is the man who desires life, who loves days in order to see good?¹³ Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking guile;¹⁴ depart from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.¹⁵ The eyes of Jehovah are on the righteous; and His ears are open to their cry.¹⁶ The face of Jehovah is against those who do evil, to cut off their memory from the earth.¹⁷ The righteous cry, and Jehovah hears; and He saves them out of all their distresses.¹⁸ Jehovah is near to the broken of heart; and He saves the crushed of spirit.¹⁹ Many are the evils of the righteous, but Jehovah helps him out of them all,²⁰ keeping all His bones; not one of them is broken.²¹ Evil shall slay the wicked; yea, those who hate the righteous shall become guilty.²² Jehovah is redeeming the soul of His servants; and none of those who trust in Him shall be guilty.
