[1] I will bless Yahweh at all times. His praise will always be in my mouth. [2] My soul shall boast in Yahweh. The humble shall hear of it and be glad. [3] Oh magnify Yahweh with me. Let’s exalt his name together. [4] I sought Yahweh, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears. [5] They looked to him, and were radiant. Their faces shall never be covered with shame. [6] This poor man cried, and Yahweh heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles. [7] Yahweh’s angel encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them. [8] Oh taste and see that Yahweh is good. Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him. [9] Oh fear Yahweh, you his saints, for there is no lack with those who fear him. [10] The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger, but those who seek Yahweh shall not lack any good thing. [11] Come, you children, listen to me. I will teach you the fear of Yahweh. [12] Who is someone who desires life, and loves many days, that he may see good? [13] Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking lies. [14] Depart from evil, and do good. Seek peace, and pursue it. [15] Yahweh’s eyes are toward the righteous. His ears listen to their cry. [16] Yahweh’s face is against those who do evil, to cut off their memory from the earth. [17] The righteous cry, and Yahweh hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles. [18] Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. [19] Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but Yahweh delivers him out of them all. [20] He protects all of his bones. Not one of them is broken. [21] Evil shall kill the wicked. Those who hate the righteous shall be condemned. [22] Yahweh redeems the soul of his servants. None of those who take refuge in him shall be condemned.
