4 I ^asought the Lord, and He heard me,
And delivered me from all my fears.

And their faces were not ashamed.

And saved him out of all his troubles.

And delivers them.

8 Oh, ^ataste and see that the Lord is good;
^bBlessed is the man who trusts in Him!

9 Oh, fear the Lord, you His saints!
There is no¹ want to those who fear Him.

^aBut those who seek the Lord shall not lack any good thing.

11 Come, you children, listen to me;
^aI will teach you the fear of the Lord.

12 ^aWho is the man who desires life,
And loves many days, that he may see good?

13 Keep your tongue from evil,
And your lips from speaking ^adeceit.

14 ^aDepart from evil and do good;
^bSeek peace and pursue it.

15 ^aThe eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
And His ears are open to their cry.

16 ^aThe face of the Lord is against those who do evil,
^bTo¹ cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.

17 The righteous cry out, and ^athe Lord hears,
And delivers them out of all their troubles.

And saves such as¹ have a contrite spirit.

19 ^aMany are the afflictions of the righteous,
^bBut the Lord delivers him out of them all.

20 He guards all his bones;
^aNot one of them is broken.

21 ^aEvil shall slay the wicked,
And those who hate the righteous shall be¹ condemned.

22 The Lord ^aredeems the soul of His servants,
And none of those who trust in Him shall be condemned.
