KJV Psalms Chapter 34

|A Psalm| of David, when he changed his behaviour before Abimelech; who drove him away, and he departed. 1 I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise |shall| continually |be| in my mouth. 2 My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear |thereof|, and be glad. 3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together. 4 I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. 5 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed. 6 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard |him|, and saved him out of all his troubles. 7 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. 8 O taste and see that the LORD |is| good: blessed |is| the man |that| trusteth in him. 9 O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for |there is| no want to them that fear him. 10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good |thing|. 11 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD. 12 What man |is he that| desireth life, |and| loveth |many| days, that he may see good? 13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile. 14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it. 15 The eyes of the LORD |are| upon the righteous, and his ears |are open| unto their cry. 16 The face of the LORD |is| against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth. 17 |The righteous| cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles. 18 The LORD |is| nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. 19 Many |are| the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all. 20 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken. 21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate. 22 The LORD redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.
