Psalms 34

²My soul shall boast in the LORD.

³Oh magnify the LORD with me.

⁴I sought the LORD, and he answered me,

⁵They looked to him, and were radiant.

⁶This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him,

⁷The LORD’s angel encamps around those who fear him,

⁸Oh taste and see that the LORD is good.

⁹Oh fear the LORD, you his saints,

¹⁰The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger,

¹¹Come, you children, listen to me.

¹²Who is someone who desires life,

¹³Keep your tongue from evil,

¹⁴Depart from evil, and do good.

¹⁵The LORD’s eyes are toward the righteous.

¹⁶The LORD’s face is against those who do evil,

¹⁷The righteous cry, and the LORD hears,

¹⁸The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart,

¹⁹Many are the afflictions of the righteous,

²⁰He protects all of his bones.

²¹Evil shall kill the wicked.

²²The LORD redeems the soul of his servants.
