Psalm 34:11-16
New King James Version
11 Come, you children, listen to me;
(A)I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
12 (B)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 (C)deceit.
14 (D)Depart from evil and do good;
(E)Seek peace and pursue it.
15 (F)The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
And His ears are open to their cry.
16 (G)The face of the Lord is against those who do evil,
(H)To [a]cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
