✧By David; when he pretended to be insane before Abimelech, who drove him away, and he departed. I will bless the LORD at all times. His praise will always be in my mouth. ✧2My soul shall boast in the LORD. The humble shall hear of it and be glad. ✧3Oh magnify the LORD with me. Let’s exalt his name together. ✧4I sought the LORD, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears. ✧5They looked to him, and were radiant. Their faces shall never be covered with shame. ✧6This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles. ✧7The LORD’s angel encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them. ✧8Oh taste and see that the LORD is good. Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him. ✧9Oh fear the LORD, you his saints, for there is no lack with those who fear him. ✧10The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger, but those who seek the LORD shall not lack any good thing. ✧11Come, you children, listen to me. I will teach you the fear of the LORD. ✧12Who is someone who desires life, and loves many days, that he may see good? ✧13Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking lies. ✧14Depart from evil, and do good. Seek peace, and pursue it. ✧15The LORD’s eyes are toward the righteous. His ears listen to their cry. ✧16The LORD’s face is against those who do evil, to cut off their memory from the earth. ✧17The righteous cry, and the LORD hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles. ✧18The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. ✧19Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them all. ✧20He protects all of his bones. Not one of them is broken. ✧21Evil shall kill the wicked. Those who hate the righteous shall be condemned. ✧22The LORD redeems the soul of his servants. None of those who take refuge in him shall be condemned.
