| 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. |
| 2 | My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear [thereof], and be glad. |
| 3 | O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together. |
| 4 | I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. |
| 5 | They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not 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 encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. |
| 8 | O taste and see that the LORD [is] good: blessed [is] the man [that] trusteth in him. |
| 9 | O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for [there is] no want to them that fear him. |
| 10 | The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good [thing]. |
| 11 | Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD. |
| 12 | What man [is he that] desireth life, [and] loveth [many] days, that he may see good? |
| 13 | Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile. |
| 14 | Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it. |
| 15 | The eyes of the LORD [are] upon the righteous, and his ears [are open] unto their cry. |
| 16 | The face of the LORD [is] against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth. |
| 17 | [The righteous] cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles. |
| 18 | The LORD [is] nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. |
| 19 | Many [are] the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all. |
| 20 | He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken. |
| 21 | Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate. |
| 22 | The LORD redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate. |
