Psalms Chapter 34

1 I will bless Jehovah at all times: His praise shall continually be in my mouth.

2 My soul shall make her boast in Jehovah: The meek shall hear thereof, and be glad.

3 Oh 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 radiant; And their faces shall never be confounded.

6 This poor man cried, 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 Oh taste and see that Jehovah is good: Blessed is the man that taketh refuge in him.

9 Oh fear Jehovah, 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 Jehovah shall not want any good thing.

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

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 Jehovah are toward the righteous, And his ears are `open' unto 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' cried, and Jehovah heard, And delivered them out of all their troubles.

18 Jehovah is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart, And saveth such as are of a contrite spirit.

19 Many are the afflictions 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 slay the wicked; And they that hate the righteous shall be condemned.

22 Jehovah redeemeth the soul of his servants; And none of them that take refuge in him shall be condemned. Psalm 35 `A Psalm' of David.
