Salmos 34

¹Of David, when he feigned madness before Abimelech, who forced him to depart. I I will bless the LORD at all times; praise shall be always in my mouth.

²My soul will glory in the LORD that the poor may hear and be glad.

³Magnify the LORD with me; let us exalt his name together.

⁴II I sought the LORD, who answered me, delivered me from all my fears.

⁵Look to God that you may be radiant with joy and your faces may not blush for shame.

⁶In my misfortune I called, the LORD heard and saved me from all distress.

⁷The angel of the LORD, who encamps with them, delivers all who fear God.

⁸Learn to savor how good the LORD is; happy are those who take refuge in him.

⁹Fear the LORD, you holy ones; nothing is lacking to those who fear him.

¹⁰The powerful grow poor and hungry, but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing.

¹¹III Come, children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the LORD.

¹²Who among you loves life, takes delight in prosperous days?

¹³Keep your tongue from evil, your lips from speaking lies.

¹⁴Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.

¹⁵The LORD has eyes for the just and ears for their cry.

¹⁶The LORD'S face is against evildoers to wipe out their memory from the earth.

¹⁷When the just cry out, the LORD hears and rescues them from all distress.

¹⁸The LORD is close to the brokenhearted, saves those whose spirit is crushed.

¹⁹Many are the troubles of the just, but the LORD delivers from them all.

²⁰God watches over all their bones; not a one shall be broken.

²¹Evil will slay the wicked; those who hate the just are condemned.

²²The LORD redeems loyal servants; no one is condemned whose refuge is God.
