Ang Panginoon ay taga pagbigay at taga pagligtas. (A)Awit ni David; nang siya'y magbago ng kilos sa harap ni Abimelek, na siyang nagpalayas sa kaniya, at siya'y yumaon.

34 Aking pupurihin (B)ang Panginoon sa buong panahon:
Ang pagpuri sa kaniya ay laging sasa aking bibig.
Ang aking kaluluwa ay maghahambog (C)sa Panginoon:
Maririnig ng maamo at masasayahan.
Oh dakilain ninyo na kasama ko ang Panginoon,
At tayo'y mangagbunyi na magkakasama ng kaniyang pangalan.
(D)Aking hinanap ang Panginoon, at sinagot niya ako,
At iniligtas niya ako sa lahat ng aking mga katakutan.
Sila'y nagsitingin sa kaniya, at (E)nangaliwanagan:
At ang kanilang mukha ay hindi malilito kailan man.
Itong abang tao'y dumaing, at dininig siya ng Panginoon.
At iniligtas siya sa lahat niyang mga kabagabagan.
(F)Ang anghel ng Panginoon ay (G)humahantong sa buong palibot ng nangatatakot sa kaniya,
At ipinagsasanggalang sila.
(H)Oh inyong tikman at tingnan ninyo na ang Panginoon ay mabuti:
(I)Mapalad ang tao na nanganganlong sa kaniya.
Oh mangatakot kayo sa Panginoon, kayong mga banal niya:
Sapagka't walang kakulangan sa kanila na nangatatakot sa kaniya.
10 Ang mga (J)batang leon ay kinakapos at nagtitiis ng gutom.
(K)Nguni't silang nagsisihanap sa Panginoon ay hindi kukulangin ng anomang mabuting bagay.
11 Magsiparito kayo, kayong mga anak, dinggin ninyo ako:
Aking tuturuan kayo ng pagkatakot sa Panginoon.
12 (L)Sinong tao ang nagnanasa ng buhay,
At umiibig sa maraming kaarawan upang makakita siya ng mabuti?
13 Ingatan mo ang iyong dila mula sa masama.
At ang iyong mga labi (M)sa pagsasalita ng karayaan.
14 (N)Lumayo ka sa kasamaan, at gumawa ka ng mabuti;
(O)Hanapin mo ang kapayapaan at habulin mo.
15 (P)Ang mga mata ng Panginoon ay nakatitig sa mga matuwid,
At ang kaniyang mga pakinig ay nakabukas sa kanilang daing.
16 (Q)Ang mukha ng Panginoon ay laban sa kanila na nagsisigawa ng kasamaan,
(R)Upang ihiwalay ang alaala sa kanila sa lupa.
17 Ang matuwid ay nagsidaing, at dininig ng Panginoon,
At iniligtas sila sa lahat nilang mga kabagabagan.
18 Ang Panginoon ay malapit (S)sa kanila na may bagbag na puso,
At inililigtas ang mga may pagsisising diwa.
19 (T)Marami ang kadalamhatian ng matuwid;
Nguni't inililigtas ng Panginoon sa lahat.
20 Kaniyang iniingatan ang lahat niyang mga buto:
(U)Wala isa man sa mga yaon na nababali.
21 Papatayin ng kasamaan ang masama:
At silang nangagagalit sa matuwid na tao ay kikilanling may sala.
22 (V)Tinutubos ng Panginoon ang kaluluwa ng kaniyang mga lingkod:
At wala sa nagsisipagkanlong sa kaniya ay kikilanling may sala.

34 I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.

My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.

O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together.

I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.

They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.

This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.

The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.

O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.

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.

Taste and See That the Lord Is Good

[a] Of David, when he (A)changed his behavior before (B)Abimelech, so that he drove him out, and he went away.

34 I will bless the Lord (C)at all times;
    his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
My soul (D)makes its boast in the Lord;
    let the humble hear and (E)be glad.
Oh, (F)magnify the Lord with me,
    and let us exalt his name together!

I (G)sought the Lord, and he answered me
    and delivered me from all my fears.
Those who look to him are (H)radiant,
    and their faces shall never be ashamed.
(I)This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him
    and (J)saved him out of all his troubles.
(K)The angel of the Lord (L)encamps
    around those who fear him, and delivers them.

Oh, (M)taste and see that (N)the Lord is good!
    (O)Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him!
Oh, fear the Lord, you his saints,
    for those who fear him have no lack!
10 (P)The young lions suffer want and hunger;
    but those who (Q)seek the Lord lack no good thing.

11 (R)Come, O children, listen to me;
    (S)I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
12 (T)What man is there who desires life
    and loves many days, that he may (U)see good?
13 (V)Keep your tongue from evil
    and your lips from (W)speaking deceit.
14 (X)Turn away from evil and do good;
    seek peace and (Y)pursue it.

15 (Z)The eyes of the Lord are toward the righteous
    (AA)and his ears toward their cry.
16 (AB)The face of the Lord is against those who do evil,
    to (AC)cut off the memory of them from the earth.
17 (AD)When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears
    and delivers them out of all their troubles.
18 The Lord is near to (AE)the brokenhearted
    and saves (AF)the crushed in spirit.

19 (AG)Many are the afflictions of the righteous,
    (AH)but the Lord delivers him out of them all.
20 He keeps all his bones;
    (AI)not one of them is broken.
21 (AJ)Affliction will slay the wicked,
    and those who hate the righteous will be condemned.
22 The Lord (AK)redeems the life of his servants;
    none of those who take refuge in him will be (AL)condemned.
