PS-34:1 [A Psalm] of David, when he changed his behaviour before

Abimelech;

who drove him away, and he departed. I will bless the LORD at

all times: his

praise [shall] continually [be] in my mouth.

PS-34:2 My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble

shall hear

[thereof], and be glad.

PS-34:3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name

together.

PS-34:4 I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me

from all my

fears.

PS-34:5 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their

faces were not

ashamed.

PS-34:6 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard [him], and saved

him out of

all his troubles.

PS-34:7 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that

fear him, and

delivereth them.

PS-34:8 O taste and see that the LORD [is] good: blessed [is]

the man [that]

trusteth in him.

PS-34:9 O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for [there is] no want

to them that

fear him.

PS-34:10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they

that seek the

LORD shall not want any good [thing].

PS-34:11 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you

the fear of the

LORD.

PS-34:12 What man [is he that] desireth life, [and] loveth

[many] days, that

he may see good?

PS-34:13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking

guile.

PS-34:14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue

it.

PS-34:15 The eyes of the LORD [are] upon the righteous, and his

ears [are

open] unto their cry.

PS-34:16 The face of the LORD [is] against them that do evil, to

cut off the

remembrance of them from the earth.

PS-34:17 [The righteous] cry, and the LORD heareth, and

delivereth them out of

all their troubles.

PS-34:18 The LORD [is] nigh unto them that are of a broken heart;

 and saveth

such as be of a contrite spirit.

PS-34:19 Many [are] the afflictions of the righteous: but the

LORD delivereth

him out of them all.

PS-34:20 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.

PS-34:21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the

righteous shall be

desolate.

PS-34:22 The LORD redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none

of them that

trust in him shall be desolate.
