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

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

3 M agnify 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 T hey looked unto him, and were enlightened, and their faces were not confounded.

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

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

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

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

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

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

12 W hat man is he that desireth life, loveth days, that he may see good?

13 K eep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile;

14 D epart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.

15 T he eyes of Jehovah are upon the righteous, and his ears are toward their cry;

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

17 c ry, and Jehovah heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.

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

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

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

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

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