- I will bless the Lord at all times;
his praise shall continually be in my mouth. - I sought the Lord, and he answered me
and delivered me from all my fears. - This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him
and saved him out of all his troubles. - Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good!
Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him! - The young lions suffer want and hunger;
but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing. - Keep your tongue from evil
and your lips from speaking deceit. - Turn away from evil and do good;
seek peace and pursue it. - The eyes of the Lord are toward the righteous
and his ears toward their cry. - The face of the Lord is against those who do evil,
to cut off the memory of them from the earth. - When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears
and delivers them out of all their troubles.
The Lord is near to the brokenhearted
and saves the crushed in spirit. - Many are the afflictions of the righteous,
but the Lord delivers him out of them all. - The Lord redeems the life of his servants;
none of those who take refuge in him will be condemned. - Trust in the Lord, and do good;
dwell in the land and befriend faithfulness. - Delight yourself in the Lord,
and he will give you the desires of your heart. - Commit your way to the Lord;
trust in him, and he will act.
He will bring forth your righteousness as the light,
and your justice as the noonday. - Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him;
fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way,
over the man who carries out evil devices! - Better is the little that the righteous has
than the abundance of many wicked.
For the arms of the wicked shall be broken,
but the Lord upholds the righteous. - The wicked borrows but does not pay back,
but the righteous is generous and gives. - The steps of a man are established by the Lord,
when he delights in his way. - For the Lord loves justice;
he will not forsake his saints.
They are preserved forever,
but the children of the wicked shall be cut off. - O Lord, all my longing is before you;
my sighing is not hidden from you. - Hear my prayer, O Lord,
and give ear to my cry;
hold not your peace at my tears!
For I am a sojourner with you,
a guest, like all my fathers. - I delight to do your will, O my God;
your law is within my heart. - As for you, O Lord, you will not restrain your mercy from me;
your steadfast love and your faithfulness will ever preserve me! - As a deer pants for flowing streams,
so pants my soul for you, O God.
