1
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.
