1 I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.

2 M y 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 T hey looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.

6 T his poor man cried, and the Lord heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.

7 T he 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 T he young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing.

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

12 W hat man is he that desireth life, and loveth many 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 the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.

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

17 T he righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.

18 T he Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.

19 M any are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all.

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

21 E vil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.

22 T he Lord redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.
