Psalms Chapter 34 (NKJV Bible)
1 A Psalm of David [1†]when he pretended madness before Abimelech, who drove him away, and he departed. [1] I will [2†]bless the LORD at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.
2 My soul shall make its boast in the LORD; The humble shall hear of it and be glad.
3 Oh, magnify the LORD with me, And let us exalt His name together.
4 I [3†]sought the LORD, and He heard me, And delivered me from all my fears.
5 They looked to Him and were radiant, And their faces were not ashamed.
6 This poor man cried out, and the LORD heard him, And saved him out of all his troubles.
7 [4†]The angel of the LORD [5†]encamps all around those who fear Him, And delivers them.
8 Oh, [6†]taste and see that the LORD is good; [7†]Blessed is the man who trusts in Him!
9 Oh, fear the LORD, you His saints! There is no want to those who fear Him.
10 The young lions lack and suffer hunger; [8†]But those who seek the LORD shall not lack any good thing.
11 Come, you children, listen to me; [9†]I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
12 [10†]Who is the man who desires life, And loves many days, that he may see good?
13 Keep your tongue from evil, And your lips from speaking [11†]deceit.
14 [12†]Depart from evil and do good; [13†]Seek peace and pursue it.
15 [14†]The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous, And His ears are open to their cry.
16 [15†]The face of the LORD is against those who do evil, [16†]To cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
17 The righteous cry out, and [17†]the LORD hears, And delivers them out of all their troubles.
18 [18†]The LORD is near [19†]to those who have a broken heart, And saves such as have a contrite spirit.
19 [20†]Many are the afflictions of the righteous, [21†]But the LORD delivers him out of them all.
20 He guards all his bones; [22†]Not one of them is broken.
21 [23†]Evil shall slay the wicked, And those who hate the righteous shall be condemned.
22 The LORD [24†]redeems the soul of His servants, And none of those who trust in Him shall be condemned.
