[1] I will bless the LORD at all times; his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
[2] My soul makes its boast in the LORD; let the humble hear and be glad.
[3] Oh, magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together!
[4] I sought the LORD, and he answered me and delivered me from all my fears.
[5] Those who look to him are radiant, and their faces shall never be 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 encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them.
[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, for those who fear him have no lack!
[10] The young lions suffer want and hunger; but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing.
[11] Come, O children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
[12] What man is there who desires life and loves many days, that he may see good?
[13] Keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking deceit.
[14] Turn away from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.
[15] The eyes of the LORD are toward the righteous and his ears toward their cry.
[16] The face of the LORD is against those who do evil, to cut off the memory of them from the earth.
[17] When the righteous cry for help, the LORD hears and delivers them out of all their troubles.
[18] The LORD is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.
[19] Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them all.
[20] He keeps all his bones; not one of them is broken.
[21] Affliction will slay the wicked, and those who hate the righteous will be condemned.
[22] The LORD redeems the life of his servants; none of those who take refuge in him will be condemned.
