34:1  By David, in his changing his behaviour before Abimelech, and he driveth him away, and he goeth. I do bless Jehovah at all times, Continually His praise `is' in my mouth.

34:2  In Jehovah doth my soul boast herself, Hear do the humble and rejoice.

34:3  Ascribe ye greatness to Jehovah with me, And we exalt His name together.

34:4  I sought Jehovah, and He answered me, And from all my fears did deliver me.

34:5  They looked expectingly unto Him, And they became bright, And their faces are not ashamed.

34:6  This poor `one' called, and Jehovah heard, And from all his distresses saved him.

34:7  A messenger of Jehovah is encamping, Round about those who fear Him, And He armeth them.

34:8  Taste ye and see that Jehovah `is' good, O the happiness of the man who trusteth in Him.

34:9  Fear Jehovah, ye His holy ones, For there is no lack to those fearing Him.

34:10  Young lions have lacked and been hungry, And those seeking Jehovah lack not any good,

34:11  Come ye, children, hearken to me, The fear of Jehovah I do teach you.

34:12  Who `is' the man that is desiring life? Loving days to see good?

34:13  Keep thy tongue from evil, And thy lips from speaking deceit.

34:14  Turn aside from evil and do good, Seek peace and pursue it.

34:15  The eyes of Jehovah `are' unto the righteous, And His ears unto their cry.

34:16  (The face of Jehovah `is' on doers of evil, To cut off from earth their memorial.)

34:17  They cried, and Jehovah heard, And from all their distresses delivered them.

34:18  Near `is' Jehovah to the broken of heart, And the bruised of spirit He saveth.

34:19  Many `are' the evils of the righteous, Out of them all doth Jehovah deliver him.

34:20  He is keeping all his bones, One of them hath not been broken.

34:21  Evil doth put to death the wicked, And those hating the righteous are desolate.

34:22  Jehovah redeemeth the soul of His servants, And none trusting in Him are desolate!
