I will always give thanks unto the Lord;
his praise shall ever
be in my mouth.
My soul shall make her boast in the Lord;
the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.
O praise the Lord with me, and let us magnify his Name together.
I sought the
Lord, and he heard me;
yea, he delivered me out of all my
fear.
They had an eye unto him, and were lightened;
and
their faces were not ashamed.
Lo, the poor crieth, and the Lord heareth him, yea, and saveth him out of all his troubles.
The angel of the Lord tarrieth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.
O taste and see how gracious the Lord is;
blessed is the man
that trusteth in him.
O fear the Lord, ye that are his saints;
for they that fear him lack nothing.
The lions do lack, and
suffer hunger;
but they who seek the Lord shall want no
manner of thing that is good.
Come, ye children, and hearken
unto me;
I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
What man is he that lusteth to live, and would fain see good days? Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips, that they speak no guile.
Eschew evil, and do good;
seek peace, and ensue it.
The eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers.
The countenance of the Lord is against them that do evil, to root out the remembrance of them from the earth.
The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth them, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.
The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a contrite heart, and will save such as be of an humble spirit.
Great are the troubles of the righteous;
but the Lord delivereth
him out of all.
He keepeth all his bones, so that not one of them is broken.
But misfortune shall slay the ungodly;
and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
The Lord
delivereth the souls of his servants;
and all they that put their
trust in him shall not be destitute.
