Psalms 34:7 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 34:7

5 They looked to Him and were radiant,
And their faces were not ashamed.

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

7 ^aThe¹ angel of the Lord ^bencamps all around those who fear Him,
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.

10 The young lions lack and suffer hunger;
^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.
