Psalm 34:1-8

Complete Jewish Bible

34 ⁽⁰⁾By David, when he pretended to be insane before Avimelekh, who then drove him away; so he left:

²⁽¹⁾I will bless Adonai at all times;
his praise will always be in my mouth.
³⁽²⁾When I boast, it will be about Adonai;
the humble will hear of it and be glad.

⁴⁽³⁾Proclaim with me the greatness of Adonai;
let us exalt his name together.
⁵⁽⁴⁾I sought Adonai, and he answered me;
he rescued me from everything I feared.

⁶⁽⁵⁾They looked to him and grew radiant;
their faces will never blush for shame.
⁷⁽⁶⁾This poor man cried; Adonai heard
and saved him from all his troubles.
⁸⁽⁷⁾The angel of Adonai, who encamps
around those who fear him, delivers them.
