whose sins are covered. - When I kept silent,

on those whose hope is in his unfailing love. - May your unfailing love be with us, Lord,
even as we put our hope in you. - I will extol the Lord at all times;
his praise will always be on my lips. - I sought the Lord, and he answered me;
he delivered me from all my fears. - This poor man called, and the Lord heard him;
he saved him out of all his troubles. - Taste and see that the Lord is good;
blessed is the one who takes refuge in him. - The lions may grow weak and hungry,
but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing. - Keep your tongue from evil
and your lips from telling lies. - Turn from evil and do good;
seek peace and pursue it. - The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
and his ears are attentive to their cry. - But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil,
to blot out their name from the earth. - The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them;
he delivers them from all their troubles.
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted
and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
