[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] O 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] Look to him,
and be radiant;
so your
faces shall never be ashamed.
[6] This poor
soul cried, and was heard by the LORD,
and was
saved from every trouble.
[7] The angel of
the LORD encamps
around
those who fear him, and delivers them.
[8] O taste and
see that the LORD is good;
happy are
those who take refuge in him.
[9] O fear the
LORD, you his holy ones,
for those
who fear him have no want.
[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] Which of you
desires life,
and
covets many days to enjoy good?
[13] Keep your
tongue from evil,
and your
lips from speaking deceit.
[14] Depart from
evil, and do good;
seek peace,
and pursue it.
[15] The eyes of
the LORD are on the righteous,
and his
ears are open to their cry.
[16] The face of
the LORD is against evildoers,
to cut
off the remembrance of them from the earth.
[17] When the righteous
cry for help, the LORD hears,
and
rescues them from 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 rescues them from them all.
[20] He keeps all
their bones;
not one
of them will be broken.
[21] Evil brings
death to 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.
