Psalms 34
1
1I will bless the LORD at all times.
2
My soul shall boast in the LORD.
3
Oh magnify the LORD with me.
4
I sought the LORD, and he answered me,
5
They looked to him, and were radiant.
6
This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him,
7
The LORD’s angel encamps around those who fear him,
8
Oh taste and see that the LORD is good.
Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him. 9 Oh fear the LORD, you his saints, 10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger, 11 Come, you children, listen to me. 12 Who is someone who desires life, 13 Keep your tongue from evil, 14 Depart from evil, and do good.
Seek peace, and pursue it. 15 The LORD’s eyes are toward the righteous. 16 The LORD’s face is against those who do evil, 17 The righteous cry, and the LORD hears, 18 The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart, 19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous, 20 He protects all of his bones. 21 Evil shall kill the wicked. 22 The LORD redeems the soul of his servants.
None of those who take refuge in him shall be condemned.
