DBY PSA Chapter 34

[A Psalm] of David; when he changed his behaviour before Abimelech, who drove him away, and he departed.

34 I will bless Jehovah at all times; his praise shall continually be in my mouth.

2 My soul shall make its boast in Jehovah: the meek shall hear, and rejoice.

3 Magnify Jehovah with me, and let us exalt his name together.

4 I sought Jehovah, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.

5 They looked unto him, and were enlightened, and their faces were not confounded.

6 This afflicted one called, and Jehovah heard [him], and saved him out of all his troubles.

7 The angel of Jehovah encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.

8 Taste and see that Jehovah is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him!

9 Fear Jehovah, ye his saints; for there is no want to them that fear him.

10 The young lions are in need and suffer hunger; but they that seek Jehovah shall not want any good.

11 Come, ye sons, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of Jehovah.

12 What man is he that desireth life, [and] loveth 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 Jehovah are upon the righteous, and his ears are toward their cry;

16 The face of Jehovah is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth:

17 [The righteous] cry, and Jehovah heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.

18 Jehovah is nigh to those that are of a broken heart, and saveth them that are of a contrite spirit.

19 Many are the adversities of the righteous, but Jehovah delivereth him out of them all:

20 He keepeth all his bones; not one of them is broken.

21 Evil shall destroy the wicked; and they that hate the righteous shall bear their guilt.

22 Jehovah redeemeth the soul of his servants; and none of them that trust in him shall bear guilt.
